544:, I doubt if there is significant copyvio from those two books, although it's possible. It's more likely that the bulk of the content comes from interviews with residents by the WP article's creator and other original research, e.g. unpublished city documents, private scrapbooks, etc. If old newspapers were used, there is no indication of it. The main problem is separating out the 527:. Assuming that our notability requirements are met, the present article would still have to be cut back to practically a single sentence until such time as someone can access offline sources. Meanwhile, the references section states "This information was taken from the books...", the phrasing of which suggests a possible copyright violation. 452:
We have no way of knowing how much of the content in the Knowledge (XXG) article is original research (quite a lot, I suspect) and how much is actually from the two books mentioned. No page numbers have been provided in any case. Certainly nothing after 1993 can be sourced from them. I could not find

have been written in the two books. We simply have no way of knowing. If kept or merged, I'd be willing to work with other editors to pare the article down to something reasonably encyclopedic. However, the result will be extremely short and still poorly referenced, as we are working in the dark. It

We do not delete articles about notable topics just because one of the contributors has not read and understood our licenses (which they agreed to) and is having a hissy fit. I agree that the article is awful in many ways. The immediate solution is to remove the overtly awful content and keep the

Thus it looks like the article was first and the webpage copied it. The website gives its sources as "This information and photos were taken from the books Klemme Iowa 1889-1989 © 1989, Heritage of Hancock County, Iowa Volume One © 1993". If you think this is copied verbatim from these sources,
332:- Notability is pretty much satisfied by the book noted in the article. The article is sixteen different kinds of awful, but that is not a reason to delete. It will, however need a motivated editor with access to local sources to fix it up. To that end, I'll leave a note at the Iowa project. 494:- I am coming to consider myself a deletionist, but I have the personal view that almost anything that is well-documented from more than a century ago is notable and should be recorded in Knowledge (XXG). Something that lasted for nearly a century doesn't need to be as important as the 198:
This is probably a copyvio, but has not been deleted because the creator of the article is also the author of the original text. No real notability is shown here and I do not believe it meets schooloutcomes criteria. at the very least this needs major rewriting.
429:. At the moment, there is simply not enough to adequately verify the content of even the most basic stub on this topic. Note that the two books which are mentioned as "sources" and which are being used to argue for notability are not devoted to the school 271:- I think with some effort, this could be reworked into a viable encyclopedic article, or at least redirected into a subsection of another. For example, the article makes reference to combining with the Belmond school district, in nearby 675:
I don't feel like the original author has been "insulted" here, but including content such as the full list of names of the graduating class of 1990 does suggest that they don't understand what Knowledge (XXG) is supposed to be.
167: 648:
because, being a long established high school it will undoubtedly meet Knowledge (XXG)'s notability criteria. It's been recently re-written so, fortunately, the continual insulting of the original author(s) can now stop.
234:
the suspected copyvio content in the article is from when it was created in 2007 and has only been tagged since August 2017. The website says "PAGE CREATED 15 JAN 2010 ©2010 LaVern D. Velau" and the earliest
52:. It's clear that the content should be kept. Merging to redirecting this to another article does not require AFD, and while there was a minority which supported that, it was not widely discussed here. -- 371:

and comparing the copyright date of the website with the creation date of the Knowledge (XXG) article, it appears that the copying has been from Knowledge (XXG), not to it.
275:. The Belmond article, education section, specifically mentions serving Klemme. It might not be the greatest fit for this article, but at least it's a decent start (?) - 445:(1993) compiled by the Hancock County Genealogical Society and published by the now-defunct Curtis Media Corporation which was a historical and genealogical book publisher 574:), and there probably is enough there to source a few key points, although its very laborious if you don't have a subscription and have work only with the OCR text. 291: 200: 127: 93: 88: 214: 97: 707:, the Klemme Homestead Museum piece is a copy of the Knowledge (XXG) article.
