Talk:Abernyte

message: I received the following email:
The community of Abernyte note your apparent interest in the Wiki entry on Abernyte. Your intervention raises a number of interesting questions.
 
As the  text to which you appear to have an interest was not taken from http://www.visitdunkeld.com/ - are you asserting some intellectual rights over this text on that site?
 
If so, it raises a moral question over why http://www.visitdunkeld.com/ wish to assert rights over the publicly available history and factual description of Abernyte? A small community with little or no connection with Dunkeld, who have no need to be offended by any local use of a description of the Abernyte community area by another. Indeed that sites text on Abernyte contains not a few inaccuracies and out of date observations. The remainder of the text seems to have been gleaned in the main, from the work of Melville as published in his "Fair Lands of Gowrie"
 
The rest of the descriptions appear to require, for good manners at least, acknowledgement of the current holder of the Barony and Lands of Kinnaird. http://www.visitdunkeld.com/ may or may not have sought that - from the site there appears no way of telling.
 
We thank you for your interest in Abernyte and its thriving community.
 
Regards
 
Abernyte Heritage Group
And my reply...
Hello, and thanks for the email. The article at vistitdunkeld was mearly the first site I came across with the same text - I am in no way associated with that site.
All text in Wikipedia articles must be licenced under the GFDL licence, thus it is not possible to simply paste in text from another site. Additionally it does not meet our style guidelines etc.
I have left a number of links on your Wikipedia talk page which should help to explain what Wikipedia is, and how to contribute: User talk:Infield
It would be great if you could use the text you previously pasted as a source for writing a contemporary article about the village and it's history.
Can you reply on this talk page, thanks/wangi 12:03, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
