Wiki isn't a repository for short stories, surely? Ged UK (talk) 21:38, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete; no context. Also, copyright violation. I have never seen that many deletion tags on one page ;) Plrk (talk) 21:41, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The matter has been resolved and the article is now a redirect to the author. Could someone please close this? Plrk (talk) 21:45, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Is it a copyvio if the story is from 1903? However, a redirect is fine for now until an article about the story is developed. Corvus cornixtalk 21:45, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- The author didn't die until 1946, and I thought copyright lasted 70 years after the death of the author? Plrk (talk) 21:50, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I thought it was from the time of the publication, but I'm not an expert. Corvus cornixtalk 21:51, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, neither am I, but I would assume that the people at Wikisource kind of are, so it seems you're right. Plrk (talk) 21:53, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Comment. It appears someone has boldly redirected it to H. G. Wells. I was going to recommend a transwiki to Wikisource, but it's already there. AnturiaethwrTalk 21:49, 6 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
