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]

-==Orphaned fair use image (Image:Ac.papyrus.jpg)==
-Thanks for uploading '''[[:Image:Ac.papyrus.jpg]]'''. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a [[WP:FU|claim of fair use]]. However, the image is currently [[WP:O|orphaned]], meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. [[WP:BOLD|You may add it back]] if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see [[Wikipedia:Fair use#Policy|our fair use policy]]).
-If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "[[Special:Contributions/{{PAGENAME}}|my contributions]]" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any '''articles''' will be deleted after seven days, as described on [[wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#Images.2FMedia|criteria for speedy deletion]].
