Re: Copyright problem: Bob Langton

Hi Daemonic Kangaroo, I'm a little perturbed - the message I just received seems to indicate that I'm the one who's contributed this page, which consists of copyright content. Actually I am not the person who originally wrote this article; yes it does seem to be a straight copy from Burscough FC's website but I was trying to work out how to rectify this when I received the warning message.

My apologies - I shouldn't be in such a hurry. I've now put the same message on the talk page for User:Jlangton80 (a relative, perhaps?) who originally created the article. Cheers. --Daemonic Kangaroo (talk) 13:29, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for your courteous reply - yes I think you might be right about JLangton80 being a relative: coincidentally I was originally interested in the page because Bobby Langton was one of my gran's cousins Applemoy (talk) 19:54, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
