Talk:William C. Harvey School

Hi, Gogo Dodo. I put a template on the page of the creator of that school page, User talk:Oldtrowel, which told him what he could do to contest that it was a copyvio — some stuff that involved using the article talkpage, the one you've deleted. I explained further on the school talkpage itself, for the benefit of my colleagues rather than the newbie Oldtrowel, mentioning the Way Back Machine, so they could see that Misplaced Pages was copypasting the school prospectus, not the other way around. I meant to leave the talkpage for a few days before deleting it, since the material on it was potentially useful. Not that I expect Oldtrowel to come looking for it; he had four edits altogether, in 2006, all within a few days. But students and staff at the school may be nonplussed that "their" article is gone, I thought. (Most likely they won't find Oldtrowel's userpages.) Shouldn't we leave the talkpage for a few days? What do you think? Regards Bishonen | talk 10:05, 2 September 2011 (UTC).

P.S. It's so easy to find these massive school copyvios; most of the so-called school articles are simply copypastes of some prospectus, as the advertisement style clearly indicates. I can't believe WikiProject schools "assesses" them without even bothering to click on the link to the school website, which is always right there on the page, and where the "article" text would stare them in the face if they did. What a swamp the school articles are. A person could flop around in that category forever. :-( Bishonen | talk 10:05, 2 September 2011 (UTC).

Ken Boyd (politican)

Gogo Dodo,

Sorry for bothering you! I noticed that you were an administrator and had previously done some editing on the Misplaced Pages page of Ken Boyd (politican). I have done a lot of work on the page (I am starting to become interested in local politics and was appalled at the bias tone the page originally had!) and have worked very hard to keep it neutral and well-researched. I would like to do work on Mr. Boyd's opponent, Cynthia Neff, but her page was deleted due to her 'not being important'. In my revisions I have made great strides to uphold the tenants laid out in the Misplaced Pages guidelines, but today an unknown user (IP address only) has been revising the page to an earlier state where it was poorly researched and full of bias. Of note is the fact that the individual who first put the bias in the article is banned from Misplaced Pages for having multiple accounts (letsgocrazytogether) and this individual is attempting to revert the page back to that state. The argument is that I have deleted information which was well cited and that Misplaced Pages is all about adding information, not subtracting. While I agree with this statement wholeheartedly, the user neglects to mention that the information being deleted is not factually correct and extremely bias. In addition, the reversion deletes half of the biography, all of the committee assignments, all of the current goings of the 29 Bypass and all of Boyds committee work. In short, the reversion deletes half the article all while the IP address user claims that Misplaced Pages should never be about deleting work.

I do not like to see my work wasted and will continue to undo this persons revisions. Could you give me advice or your input on the situation? I am not bias for Mr. Boyd, heck I doubt I will even vote for him. However I want this to be a good source of information and not have my work go to waste. Thanks again and sorry if I am supposed to be speaking with someone else.

GoDoDo, The page has now been locked. While I am happy about this, I was FINALLY starting to get the other editor against a wall to speak about their edits. They are blatantly bias and include a lot of untrue information which is easily proven too be false. Does the page stay locked forever? How can this be resolved? Thank you.

I have a question. The person is claiming copyvio but that is not the case. If you go to the website for that information NONE of it is copyrighted. At the bottom it states "All information about Ken C. Boyd was provided by Ken C. Boyd, Ken C. Boyd's campaign staff, or extracted verbatim from Ken C. Boyd's website(s). This website is not associated with any Election Authority. Instead, it is hosted and maintained by Vote-USA, LLC. All data on this site were obtained from various State Election Authorities, the politicians themselves or from their staff or websites. Vote-USA, LLC is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization funded by contributions from private citizens. All contributions are 100% tax-deductible." Under Virginia law, all material created by election officials, candidates, or their campiagns is public and freely given. How is that copyvio?

I understand erring on the side of caution. However, even if it WASNT stated in Virginia law then this would still not be a case of copyright. The website states that "all information about Ken C. Boyd was provided by Ken C. Boyd, Ken C. Boyd's campaign staff, or extracted verbatim from Ken C. Boyd's website(s)." Information released by campaigns is widely accepted as free-use and we can see many examples of it everyday. The political cartoon lampooning a candidate over their choice of wording, a SNL skit mocking a candidates television advertisement, even a political rival quoting his opponent's literature. If information such as this, released by a campaign, was in fact copyright, then none of these examples would ever occur. If this information had been present on the website and belonged to the website then we would have copyright/ownership issues. As it is we have information that was publicly released by the individual in question for public use. What better use could that information have than gracing the pages of Misplaced Pages? Escytherdon (talk) 06:50, 8 September 2011 (UTC)escytherdon06:50, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)} I'm afraid you don't understand U.S. copyright law (which the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia cannot pre-empt, even if such statutes existed ). Information cannot be copyrighted, but the presentation of that information certainly can; and every newly created document, under the laws of the U.S., is copyrighted unless a specific exemption applies. Many of the websites you reference have copyright notices right there on the website, by the way. --Orange Mike | Talk 16:39, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

YOu're the last admin here

Could you please do something about Escytherdon adding copyvio to the Ken Boyd (politician) and refusing to discuss his changes outside of making accusations on the talk page? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.197.81.122 (talk) 05:43, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

The last admin here? Hmm, I better turn out the lights then. But seriously... I have protected the article since you are both edit warring and that will not be tolerated. Since you two can not agree, please follow the Dispute Resolution policy. At minimum, you should get a third opinion. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:52, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
The article needs to be reverted to the version before Escytherdon's edits. His previous "Biography" section and the "Non-profit Service" section currently in the article are straight copy paste from http://vote-va.org/intro.aspx?state=va&id=vaboydkenc. I've pointed this out to him numerous times. My reverts are exempt from WP:3RR because I am reverting unambiguous WP:COPYVIO. 75.197.81.122 (talk) 06:00, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
I have removed that particular section as you are correct that it was a blatant copyright violation. However, I disagree with you classifying all of your edits as reverting copyright violations as you were changing much more than that. That makes you not exempted from WP:3RR. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:07, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Esteban Tanchauco Caedo

Hi Gogo Dodo

I am new here and was attempting to make a write up on my grandfather who is regarded as the pioneering pillars of the airconditioning industry in the Philippines. He is the brother of Anastacio Tanchauco Caedo, of artistic fame. The attempt was work in progress and am struggling to complete it. Will you allow me resubmit a page on my grandfather? Is there a feature here where content can be saved just as a draft and not visible in the internet for the meantime it is being constructed?

Thanks for your help.

reasons why u must rivive my article

Hello, you recently deleted my article about a band named "Untitled THUGz". the reason why i think they should be on Misplaced Pages is they have achieved an agreement from Slip-n-Slide records in miami florida to join their program named "sns on da grind" and they worked with Yukmouth and catch 22 a local legend in Nigeria and they will release their upcoming EP from Islan Def Jam distribution and they have recieved a contract from Tate music group and they will join one of these recording lables in close future : Smoke-a-lot, Tate music Group, Loyality Brings Royality, Slip-n-Slide

Removal of Article

Hi,

I just tried to ad an article which was subsequently removed due to external linking etc.

I am a bit unsure on how to submit an article which I have had specifically written for the subject matter.

I have looked at some articles that have been submitted and noticed that they contain links to the persons own websites.

If I link to my blog or same article on my blog is that allowable?

I am not quite sure on how to go about linking etc.

Re your message: The article was deleted because it was a copyright violation with the content copied directly from the website of the company that you work for. It was also clearly promotional in tone. Due to the copyright violation, it was deleted immediately and I will not restore it. You may ask for a review of the deletion through the Deletion Review process. You can also recreate the article without the copyright violations and without the promotional tone. Before you do so, I strongly recommend that you review Misplaced Pages's Business' FAQ. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 16:18, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

Dear Gogo Dodo,

If I made the reference to the website how would it be a copyright violation for using the website content. I am not asking you to restore it but I would like the content that I wrote into the article given back to me so I can use it as a reference when recreating the article without the violations stated.

User talk:Karenblackhall

Hello Gogo Dodo,

I am here, once again, to ask for a bit of help. If you have a moment, please look at User talk:Karenblackhall. Blackhall is in charge of public relations for the Cochrane Group, and has been adding many citations attributed to this entity. Often her edits have been obviously promotional in tone, and she has received COI warnings as a result. However, the Cochrane Review is highly respected in medical sources, and certainly qualifies as an RS. Another editor, who is both a physician and a sysop, has hidden the COI warning, and he reverted my edit when I unhid it. I have asked him to revert, but he declines. I would appreciate your take on the situation. Many thanks. Ebikeguy (talk) 15:19, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

You are far too modest, eloquent though Jimfbleak is. Thanks for checking into it! Ebikeguy (talk) 18:15, 3 October 2011 (UTC)
