Are you sure the village society hasn't copied sections of this article and then copyrighted it? The village website has copyrighted their text as of 2009, however elements of the text you have removed have been in this article since it was created in 2003. See this version of the article from December 2003. -- roleplayer 20:54, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)::You're probably right, I've restored the text. I didn't check the article history, I assumed it was recently created in the same way Little kingshill was. Guess that's what you get for investigating copyright while tired... Signing off. Pol430 talk to me 21:07, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

These revisions: [1][2][3][4] further show the evolution of the text over time on this site. The village website is in the wrong, not this article. -- roleplayer 21:04, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Forgive my vociferous reply, I was an anon editor who created and worked on many of the Buckinghamshire articles before I signed up for this username. Can we also restore the text on Little Kingshill too please? Now that we know it's not copyrighted. -- roleplayer 21:12, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually scrub that, I'll create a better version at the correct location. -- roleplayer 21:17, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
