Although it's just a short passage, the first paragraph under Early Years looks to have come from this bio, specifically the start of the second paragraph under Words and Actions. Autarch (talk) 18:49, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Derek Humphry posted that passage to wikipedia. Do you prefer he rewrite it (LOL). Or should it be specially cited? SilverLiner (talk) 00:25, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

OK - WP:COPYVIO says f the contributor is the copyright holder of the text, then even if it is published elsewhere under different terms, they have the right to post it here under CC-BY-SA and GFDL – the text may still be unsuitable for Wikipedia for another reason, but it is not a copyright violation. They may donate the material through the procedures described at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials and In both these cases, it is a good idea to make a note of the situation on the discussion page. I was probably over-cautious. Autarch (talk) 18:43, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

At the top of the article a flag existed suggesting there may be an issue with the "tone" of the article. However I observe no follow-up on ths Talk page. Without any specifics provided, I have removed that flag. But if there are specifics please do post here. SilverLiner (talk) 00:31, 27 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
