From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi, Gomes.

Did the original author of the text in the Bengali Christian article gave permission for the text being used in Wikipedia? I noted you have put a "Credits" section at the end of the article, pointing to the web-site [1] where the text comes from, but I don't believe this is enough for avoiding a copyright violation.

I believe the web-site author would be interested in the proliferation of its information, so, if correctly approached, he may allow the text to be on Wikipedia.

Thanks.

Yes the original website is operated by someone I know. Also the article is community contribution and I am pretty sure the orginal author won't have any objection about it. However I don't have his contact info at this moment. But I am involved with various organization who hopes to educate the rest of the world about this matter.
