Since when can one contribute overviews copied from other websites? Where the website states

7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
7.1 All rights of intellectual property, as well as all similar rights on all of the website offered services, products and information based solely with [name of company] or his licensors.

Vote No and the problem is dealt with. No need to open a thread. Of course this is just my opinion.

There's no copyright violation because the contributed overview is not an exact copy of the source and the used source is the publisher of the DVD which doesn't contain an overview.


If, as Martin suggests, the source is the publisher of the DVD then there shouldn't be a problem.  I mean, if we are being sticklers, the overview on the back of the DVD is copyrighted as well.  We don't worry about that, now, do we?

If the overview is copied fromt the official website, I say it is fine.  If it is copied from some other website, then it is not.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

The existing overview is an exact copy taken from an other website, so if there's any copyright violation it's with that one and not with the one that has been contributed.
