Letter from triratna.info

Thank you for your inquiry.

I do NOT grant you the unlimited permission to copy my website triratna.info which for several reasons:

1. A copy/paste kind of editing might get you into alot of trouble.
You already copied the content of at least 9 of my introductions/pages.
How do you know I myself didn't plagerize passages from a copyright source??
(You can protect yourself this by making significant "additions, corrections or deletions" - see below. Additionally a copy/paste stategy to my lineage removes all relational meaning.

2. I am no expert and admit my pages contain errors (especially transliteration). Unless you go to the trouble to check my texts how do you know that they are correct? With "copy/paste editing" incorrect copies can easily start to outnumber correct versions and therefore quickly change history.

3. You do not limit your request to specific pages but rather my entire website, images, and even additions at a future date!!)

4. You aren't Chinese or based in China but rather Estonian/Australian! I might have more sympathies for Chinese publishing a "Chinese Encyclopedia".

5. You didn't mention that I might also use materials from your pages. (reciprocity)

6. Additionally I would like to call your attention to my copyright notice at this address: http://resources.triratna.info/Notes01.html#Copyr

There it states:

The material here in it's present form and layout can be considered to be copyrighted by the author.
If however you would like to make significant additions, corrections, deletions to the general factual material presented here and present it in your own unique format, then of course go ahead.
There is no copyrights on historical facts but rather only on creative work.
Please be aware that the pages here can/do contain errors.

Please immediately remove my copyrighted texts (at least 9 pages) from your website. If you continue to use such unethical practices (taking what is not given) you risk having your entire website permanently removed from the internet!
