Hi Periwinklewrinkles,
I have left you our standard welcome message above with some information and links you may find useful. But I wanted to specifically bring up the page Bogdan Gasiński's letter to the District Prosecutor's Office in Olsztyn that you created.
Most critically, the text appears to be modern (2001), but it contains no license statement. Wikisource cannot accept texts that are not either in the public domain (typically due to expiration of copyright) or released under a free license. Could you clarify what the copyright and licensing status of this text is?
In addition, the text is not backed by a scan of the original and previously published text of which it is a transcription; and the page contains additional commentary that violates our policy on annotated texts. --Xover (talk) 11:55, 28 July 2020 (UTC)
