Lost Boys of Sudan and copyright

When quoting large blocks of copyright text, it should be clear the text is not original to Wikipedia, rather is a direct quote attributed to a certain person. Due to how much text is being quoted here, it will probably be deleted eventually as a copyright violation. Wikipedia allows small blocks of text to be included under fair use, but when the majority of an entire article is composed mostly of quoted copyright text, it is obviously a problem. Since your an expert on the subject I would recommend writing new material from scratch rather than re-using copyright material word for word. Or if your the owner of the copyright material, you may release it into the public domain, in which case it would be easier to incorporate.

Hi sorry, I did some more research and I'm unable to find the quotes you added to Wikipedia in your website or book, so I assume the text you added is original to Wikipedia (although I'm confused why it was originally added in quotes). I've re-edited the article accordingly by removing the quotes, but keeping the citation to your book, for fact checking purposes. If the text in the article is indeed word for word from another source, let me know so we can figure out a solution, otherwise should be OK now.

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Lost Boys of Sudan may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Thanks,
