==Hello==
Gosh. That was a colourful welcome. If you want to translate - which is what I understand your question to be - simply do it. Find an English article and translate in into Icelandic, and post it on the Icelandic site. Get yourself a user name there. Or do it the reverse way round. You can do whatever you want to do with the Edit This Page link :) --User:TagishsimonUser_talk:Tagishsimon

I've had a look at the history of four pages you have worked on - and I'm not sure which one you are referring to when you talk about the webmaster reverting your edits becuase of a possible copyright issue. The history of the pages, and what seems to have happened to them are here:
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gar%F0arr_Svavarsson&action=history Garðarr Svavarsson] - spelling & grammer seem to have been edited
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Naddoddr&action=history Naddoddr] - rewritten, cleaned up, wikified, categorized
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bar%F0astr%F6nd&action=history Barðaströnd] - wikified
*[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fl%F3ki_Vilger%F0arson&action=history Flóki Vilgerðarson] - (cleanup wikify & stubbed)
It looks to me - if these were the pages - that it is all part of the normal process of person two amending the input of person one.
However it might be that your contribution was to another page. What I would advise, if you have concerns that after you re-insert text into an article someone else will remove it for copyright reasons again, is to put a note on the edit summary saying "refer to Talk page for copyright details", and put a note on the discussion page associated with the article, specifying that copyright has been cleared by the source you used.
If you let me know on exactly which page or pages this occurred, then I can perhaps be of more help. best wishes --User:TagishsimonUser_talk:Tagishsimon
:As I do not know what the name of the page was, I'm not in a position to find out anymore about who removed it & why. Recreate the page and let me know what you call it. --User:TagishsimonUser_talk:Tagishsimon
