Can someone who has access please take a look at <kbd>{{cite book|title=Twin Cities Picture Show: A Century of Moviegoing|publisher=Minnesota Historical Society Press|date=November 1, 2007|last=Kenney|first=Dave|isbn=9780873515955}}</kbd> and compare its text about Minnessota's ''Terrace Theatre'', with the text from the [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Terrace_Theatre_(Minnesota)&oldid=672455732 first revision] of our article at [[Terrace Theatre (Minnesota)]] – which I have placed under investigation for potential copyright infringement. Please also check that book's copyright page to see if it's licensed in some free manner.<p>The issue is that the article cited this book as the source of certain content, even though that content is copied from a website the content of which is licensed under CC-By-SA 4.0. However, if the book is the source of the text, then the website claiming to license this content under CC-By-SA 4.0 has no authroity to do so, since the copyright was not owned by them in the first place.</p><p>Though I'm hoping for a general check, I think starting with the second paragraph in the history section that begins: "When the 1300 seat Terrace Theater opened in 1951, the spectacular venue was the most luxurious, comfortable and up-to-date theater in America" is a good bet sicne that pagraph was specifically cited to this book source. Thanks very much--[[User:Fuhghettaboutit|Fuhghettaboutit]] ([[User talk:Fuhghettaboutit|talk]]) 15:58, 17 September 2016 (UTC)</p>
:Hi {{u|Fuhghettaboutit}}, the book is on Google books, and the required page appears to be included: [https://books.google.co.za/books?id=jVwGgHj3IA8C&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q=terrace%20theater&f=false] - page 117. As far as I can tell, the text seems well and truly paraphrased; although the content matches, no verbatim copies are evident. So I think we might be good here.
