E-bomb[edit]

Great contributions so far! With only one hang-up; according to Wikipedia:Copyrights (under Contributors' rights and obligations), we should:

Never use materials that infringe the copyrights
of others. This could create legal liabilities and
seriously hurt the project. If in doubt, write it
yourself.
Note that copyright law governs the creative
expression of ideas, not the ideas or information
themselves. Therefore, it is perfectly legal to
read an encyclopedia article or other work,
reformulate it in your own words, and submit it to
Wikipedia.

I hate to bring this up -- the e-bomb article has been badly needing cited sources for a while now, and you've done a really good job on expanding the article -- but by merely copying the text, you run the risk of the information being deleted before it gets transformed into a form that is usable on Wikipedia for the long term.

I'll see if I can rephrase some of the text later this week, so that we don't lose the great info you've given us. You should try to do some of the same. (c; - Eric Herboso

Sorry about accidentally spamming your user page. I meant to put the content here, and didn't realize it until just now. My mistake. Next time I should get some much needed sleep before editing like that.... - Eric Herboso 08:55, 28 Feb 2005 (UTC)
