The draft was directly copied from George Bass, but I am wondering whether that itself is a copyvio: see [1] (e.g. "He was one of the first to describe that loveable Australian marsupial, the wombat."). MER-C 17:55, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@MER-C: I agree, Signed,The4lines |||| ^{(You Asked?) (What I have Done.)} 18:37, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rezang La (history · last edit · rewrite) from https://books.google.com/books?id=uzizVBSb4YsC&pg=PA73&lpg=PA73#v=onepage&q&f=false. This section was copied wholesale from a book, but the book was published by the Ministry of Defence of the government of India. According to copyright law of India, government works are indeed protected under copyright for 60 years after publication, which would easily cover this, and the edition notice certainly seems to imply that it is copyrighted, but I am not 100% confident that there isn't some kind of exception that might apply here. -Elmer Clark (talk) 21:59, 24 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
