A brief tour of Dr. Wilkins' own [website], shows that he may be interrested in contributing to the Wikipedia himself. He seems to have personally transcribed the W W Rouse Ball book, along with biographies of other Mathemeticians.
I'm writing in regards to the text you have on your website listed as being from A Short Account of the History of Mathematics. by W. W. Rouse Ball. I'm a contributor to wikipedia ( http://www.wikipedia.com ), an online, open content encyclopedia. We are interested in using some of the text from this source, but have been having problems verifying the copyright status. I wonder if you could point us to your path in verifying that it is in the public domain. The encyclopedia is new and still limited in its finances, so we're very interested in avoiding any sort of legal challenge.
Thank you,
