CopyVio[edit]

About the CopyVio alert from the bot. The webpage found as source by the bot actually only cites the official OpenVX website. As I stated in my edit comment this text is based on the text from the official OpenVX website. Since the text is about an open and free standard I assumed that it was ok to base the text on some of the standard's official text, then I wikified some formulations etc. Also the description is very basic like "this is a standard for this and that, can be used for things and stuff". However, I now realise that there is a copyright sign in the end of the official OpenVX website. I apologize if the text is not ok. If you still think it needs to be completely reformulated then I can consider doing that, but it will be much shorter then. MartinLjungqvist (talk) 10:53, 17 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MartinLjungqvist, yes the OpenVX site is in fact copyrighted, which I agree has a certain irony to it. However, it is, and so the text here will need to be worked to avoid infringement. It is true that facts and simple declarations are not copyrightable, but creative presentation including word choice and structure, can be. Things like "OpenVX defines a higher level of abstraction for execution...." and "An OpenVX developer expresses a connected graph of vision nodes..." would seem to include creative elements of presentation. So if you can take a pass through and rework the material in your own words, I'd appreciate it. You can use this link: [1] to compare the source with this article. When it goes green then generally things are ok. Thanks for your work, Crow^Caw 22:52, 28 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the advice. I have now done as you suggested. The article is somewhat shorter but with same info. Now the comparison is green compared to the OpenVX official description (and therefore also that other page found that was based on the official text. Therefore removing CopyVio mark.

Perfect, looks good to me. Thanks for the re-work! Crow^Caw 23:07, 3 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
