Potential copyvio

[edit]

I sent the following email to the address listed on the theothersideofcalifornia.com website:

Hello,

Someone using the login of "Jon Klusmire" copied a significant amount of content from your
site to wikivoyage.org earlier this month.  While it would be great to use this information
on Wikivoyage, theothersideofcalifornia.com does not indicate that text can be freely copied.

If you could reply indicating that it is OK to use your content under the terms of the CC-SA
license, or (even better), if "Jon Klusmire" works for you, if you could get him to login to
Wikivoyage and place a note on the http://en.wikivoyage.org/wiki/Talk:Inyo_County page indicating
that content from theothersideofcalifornia.com can be re-used under the CC-SA license it
would be appreciated.  If permission is not granted to re-use your content then it will be

Since much of the text in this article, and several others for Inyo County towns, appeared to have been taken from other sites I've deleted significant chunks. If at a later time the authors of that text indicate that it can be used on Wikivoyage under the terms of the CC-SA license then it can be restored, but please ensure that such permission is explicitly given and mentioned on this talk page before doing so. -- (WT-en) wrh2 20:17, 30 September 2011 (EDT)
