Dave James

Unfortunately, the article appeared to be a word-for-word copy of Dave James' biography on QVC.com, as seen at http://www.qvc.com/cp/cp_host_james.html. Since it was blatant copyright infringement, and there was no non-infringing material in the article or its history, it was tagged and deleted. This also doesn't mean that a proper non-copyright-infringing version could not be posted, just that the old version can't legally remain. Hope this helps, UltraExactZZ ^Claims ~ Evidence 10:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
