Talk:How To Build A Teardrop Trailer/A Brief History of the Homebuilt Teardrop Trailer

I am the author of this article. I wrote it as a chapter in a book that I haven't finished yet. I have it posted on my website, tinytears.cc.

I have also deleted all links in my bibliography. The bibliography is included as proper credit to the authors of articles that have been quoted. The quotes do not violate copyright laws and a biblography is normal/proper authorship.

I'm not sure why Wiki will not recognize me as the author.

 * Your authorship is not disputed. The problem is the copyright notice at the bottom of the front page which in part states:
 * Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed and credit must be given to the original author.


 * The portions I listed in bold here are the issue, as these statements are at odds with the GNU Free Documentation License (aka GFDL). Unless you are willing to allow others to edit this work, it cannot be hosted at Wikibooks, because all text hosted here must be licensed under the GFDL, which explicitly allows the text to be altered. --Jomegat 12:30, 22 October 2007 (UTC)


 * I believe I have corrected correctly. Please advise. John B.


 * Thanks John! That clears it up quite nicely.  I removed the copyvio notice. --Jomegat 13:10, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
