Dear bloggers, do not steal from me

Since copying and plagiarism is in news (Kaavya Viswanathan and Pinging from Bangalore), this is a good time to remind my fellow bloggers of my old policy, because I am finding a lot of our contents being used without credits, especially use of photographs in Wikipedia articles. Many thanks to all the friends who are reporting such theft. It is heartening to see that others are keeping a close eye on my behalf. It took my parents a lifetime to compile these contents, and I thank you for respecting the decades of labor and scholarship that went into them. A Special Note About Stamps I have written that stamps are in public domain, that doesn't mean you can steal a scan of a stamp from me! Collect your own stamps and scan them. If you use mine without credit, it is still stealing! See Also: • Accumulation of Kamat Photo Archive • Rediff: Copy Wrong • Indian Stamps Database (Comments Disabled for Now. Sorry!)
