Dear hubbers,

Please make note that the recipes posted in the hub should bear credits (link,acknowledgement, or whatever), unless it is your own. Or we are in copyrights trouble.

What about some members who have posted
stolen recipes and posted on record on hub ??

**NOV** · 8th November 2005, 11:53 AM

Welcome back Hemant!

Pls provide us with proof and we will request for acknowledgement, failing which, delete the offending posts/threads.

Dear NOV,

It would be inappropriate for me to post links here. When I had pointed this out, my post was unceremoniously removed. Not only that, the offending lady who has just three year's experience in cooking is running a thriving topic of hundreds upon hundreds of recipes.

Mrs. Mano and myself have devoted over 40 years in art of cooking and it just pains me when I read such stolen, cut and paste stuff.
If you insist, I will post links to such original recipes from where the FH posted stuff appears.

Please let me know if mere deleting such recipes is enough ?

Please furnish us with proofs for us to take action. We also go by the innocent-till-proven-otherwise maxim.

Several people have made queries through PMs on this issue.

1. We are firm in our view that all Hubbers should provide credit, for material that is not original. The best bet of course is just to give a direct link, and then post queries or comments.

2. We will not act on insinuations alone. Please do not make this Forum a political platform.

3. Hubbers are advised to carry on with thier discussions and sharing of recipes and tips, without any unease. All disputes will be handled on a case to case basis.

Dear NOV,
I am sending you links which speak for themselves through Personal mail.

Dear RR,

Pl. dont delete the Sun tv thread as it is very useful for people who dont have access for it. Since the Thread name speaks for itself, there is no stealing or coping and Ms. R has dedicated her time by posting those recipes and nowhere she claimed that its her recipe. Kindly reconsider before deleting the thread.

Regards,

VM

Administrators,
It is certainly not fair to delete this Suntv thread --- it is equal to Mr. Hemant's & Mrs.Mano's threads, as R has sincerely shared all her experiences/tips and not even once has she taken credit for any of the recipes. It is always mentioned the TV Programme or her cousin or her friends version, like that only. What copyright issues can there be ? In fact, I feel it is the Dhaba Recipes thread which is more plagarised, [assuming that this thread is what MR.Hemant mentioned], wherein more than half of the recipes are not even the usual Dhaba fare !!
Keep it locked if you prefer but Kindly please DO NOT DELETE the hard work, huge amounts of time spent on this thread by such a nice person as Mrs.R --- in no way can it be justified.
Regards,
Urmila Raheja.
