BBC radio shows

Hi Spow00; I've just nominated one of the samples you uploaded for deletion, but now I see that you've uploaded a large number. Can I ask why you believe that these recordings of a BBC radio show are licensed under a free Creative Commons license? As far as I'm aware, all BBC content is all rights reserved. If we aren't able to clear this up, all of the samples will have to be deleted. Thanks, J Milburn (talk) 12:55, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

That all sounds very interesting, but where's the proof? Take File:Roger Scruton BBC Radio4 A Point of View 11 Aug 2013 b037vb15.flac, which I nominated for deletion. This is sourced simply to the BBC website, and there's not even a mention of this project. Where's the statement releasing the excerpt? An email? A blog post?

I do hope we can clarify all of this, as it would be excellent to confirm the release of these samples- I've left a comment here, which can hopefully clear up the confusion here. J Milburn (talk) 22:23, 6 March 2014 (UTC)
