Copying your Citizendium articles

"When I write new articles at Citizendiuhttp://en.wikipedia.org/skins-1.5/common/images/button_sig.pngm, I will post a notice here, so that anyone can copy them across to Wikipedia if they wish."

By a strict interpretation of the GFDL, copying across one of your articles from Citizendium to Wikipedia would be a copyright violation, as the GFDL requires authorship attribution, and such a copying operation would wrongly attribute authorship to the copier. I suppose the copier might acknowledge you in the edit summary, but that would be rather messy. Perhaps this situation will prompt the developers to turn on the import facility. Meanwhile, it would be much less problematic if you contributed your articles yourself. Have you an ideological reason for not doing so? Hesperian 01:25, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's okay as long as they properly source where it's come from...presumably a link to the article on cz. That's what happens currently when people post public domain or GFDL articles taken from elsewhere. Of course, we'd rather have Adam here and doing it himself. :) Sarah 08:14, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Adam. Thanks for the message. I don't have up-to-date contact details for you. I like Wikipedia and I enjoy making a contribution. Vic Victor 08:13, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

admin?

Hi Adam! I recognized that you've been joining Wikipedia since September 2003. Are you an administrator? Morris Munroe 08:53, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This information can be obtained from Special:Listusers. Hesperian 10:17, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Dead links

Adam:

While looking up dead external links, I found a batch of them that seem to belong to you, leading to "Adam Carr's Electoral Archive"

You ought to check on that. --Calton | Talk 00:53, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

All right, but since it's your restructured site, you're the one who knows where everything is, making you the logical candidate to replace the links. If you won't, I'll just remove them sometime in the near future as the simplest solution. --Calton | Talk 04:02, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

reason

There was a good one for putting the alternative spelling in the first sentence of the 'su/soe' indonesian politicians articles - but I am not going to revert them - hope you feel happy about that. Satu Suro 02:27, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keeping the diff spelling within the first sentence rather than down into the article had been the intention, but if you enjoy that well Ill leave it at thatSatu Suro 09:13, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Expletive!

Hi. I just noticed at User talk:Sarah Ewart that you're moving from Wikipedia to Citizendium. That is a great loss to Wikipedia. Thanks for all your contributions, especially your edits to articles about Australian politics. Best wishes, CWC(talk) 06:06, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CZ and WP

Hi Adam, thanks for your message. I completely understand why you've joined CZ and I agree with your views on the vandals, anons and nuts. The larger and more popular WP gets, the worse the problem with such editors is getting. I feel like I waste most of my time here dealing with such people. I've actually been considering joining CZ myself.
I would be happy to help with posting your articles here. It would probably be best if you were to put them in your WP userspace until CZ comes out of pilot testing as CZ's database can't be viewed by non-members at the moment. Sarah 12:47, 17 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

-==Unspecified source for Image:Ac.fawkner.jpg==
-Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Ac.fawkner.jpg]]'''. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the [[copyright]] status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.
-As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{tl|GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the [[GFDL]]. If you believe the media meets the criteria at [[Wikipedia:Fair use]], use a tag such as {{tlp|fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use]]. See [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags]] for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
-If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following [{{fullurl:Special:Log|type=upload&user={{PAGENAMEE}}}} this link]. '''Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged''', as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]]. If the image is copyrighted under a [[Wikipedia:Image copyright tags/Fair use|non-free license]] (per [[Wikipedia:Fair use]]) then '''the image will be deleted [[WP:CSD#I7|48 hours]] after 06:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)'''. If you have any questions please ask them at the [[Wikipedia:Media copyright questions|Media copyright questions page]]. Thank you. [[User:Konstable|Konstable]] 06:50, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
