Copyright violation?[edit]

The text of these four mazurkas is taken, not totally verbatim, but with a slight twist & use of words from Kristen Grimshaw's Mazurkas (4) for piano, Op. 33, CT. 72-75 published at: http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=42:356719~T1

Allmusic is given as reference in article, but that does not give the right to Wikipedia editor(s) to use 99 percent of the text almost word for word.

Same type of "borrowing" done from Chopin Works By David Dubal with Lists of Exceptional Recordings FREDERIC CHOPIN 1810-1849-Poland at Vancouver Chopin Society: http://www.chopinsociety.org/chopin/mazurkas#maz331,

for instance: "in dull hands the work can sound repetitious" (David Dubal) vs "in dull hands it can begin to sound repetitious " (wikipedia)

In my opinion, this is akin to "copyright violation".

Both links don't work anymore and it's questionable who copied from whom first. Also, if it was something the piano teacher Dubal said, just turn it into a quotation. --2001:16B8:3173:5100:7100:D214:E603:77DE (talk) 21:27, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
