Look out! It seems like you're harvesting some of Sabazius' saint bio pieces directly into Thelemapedia. As far as I know, he is maintaining copyright on those; they are not in the public domain. They make great references and can give you a quick overview of the figures in question, but you need to write original text or take it from somewhere that it's already in the public domain. Don't mess with our Grand Master's IP! Then again, he might consent to having the text go to public domain; but you can't just assume it. --[[User:Paradoxosalpha|Paradoxosalpha]] 04:38, 7 Oct 2004 (EDT) | Look out!

'''Reminder''': once something is posted here, no matter how copyrighted, it immediately becomes public. Anyone can take it, reword it, or anything really. I hope Sabazius understands that work immediately loses all copyright protection here (well, it has GNU protection, but that's not the same). The best thing might be for someone to go in and substantially rewrite the verbatim works, and add other material if possible. [[User:Ash|Ash]] | |||

It's great to see people jumping in! A suggestion...your page on Lust of Result could really use some source references. It's important not to assume that readers will know where you got information. See Thelemapedia Article Basics for a basic primer on citations and references. Again, thanks for adding to Thelemapedia and keep 'em coming! 93—Ash
