			==David Shankbone Creative Commons Licenses Are Now Public Domain==

			Hi all - I've been moving all my photography licenses—to the extent they don't violate respective laws and personality rights—out of the Creative Commons license structure and into the public domain. The most significant shift is that anyone can profit off my work and no need to give me credit. This license shift is evident on my Flickr, including (which was amazing - can't believe a guy like Mick Jagger exists) to . Anyone has 'license' to change my Creative Commons licenses into the Public Domain. <span style="color:#336699; font-size:small; font-family:comic sans ms;">David</span> ''']''' 07:24, 28 September 2021 (UTC)

	It was good to see you too, David. I was really impressed with all the work you did. What I liked about the meeting was that at least four different people got up and spoke to the group, as opposed to just one or two, so there was a greater sense of participation than I've seen so far. I was glad to get up and move the camera around a few times so that the video will show this. And speaking of Barnstars, I took a pic of MS holding up one (in case you already didn't). As for the video upload, I forgot which website ] referred me to when we uploaded the video from the last Meetup, so I left a message on his Talk Page asking him to remind me of it. He hasn't yet responded, so stay tuned. I'm also having trouble uploading pics to the Commons, since there's no Upload button on the left, but you cou8ld probably help me out there. Thanks for dropping a line! ] (]) 03:28, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

	Apologies for removing the image completely, I meant to retain it elsewhere in the article from the outset (which I have now reverted and fixed). I believe that the image I added, regardless of its resolution, is more suitable for the infobox because it is a straight-on headshot from the shoulders up (i.e. better proportions for its position, better angle), whereas your image was more suited for the main body of the article because of its size and her face is angled away from the camera.

	:Responding to the "unintentionally confusing" comment. Here's what was wrong: Basically -- a 3RR violation (strictly speaking) is 4 reverts within 24 hours. To demonstrate 4 reverts, what you should show is four diffs (which you did) and also an older version of the article to demonstrate that the first of the diffs was actually a revert. So in all you'd be showing 5 different revisions of the article that are all the same -- the first could be old (not within the 24h period). In this case, there only exist 4 revisions that were the same, which is why this was not strictly a 3RR violation -- only 3 of the edits were actually reverts; the first was simply an edit. I didn't intend to accuse you of being intentionally confusing -- 3RR reports are tricky enough as it is, and this kind of mistake gets made a lot. ]]<sup>]</sup> 15:24, 11 April 2008 (UTC)

	:Your misunderstanding the concept of "civility" and you are misunderstanding what I wrote. Misplaced Pages is not an easy thing to edit, especially since many people erroneously feel it is in a state of near-completion and only needs "maintenance". Changes to text can be more difficult than you might imagine. Anything that hurts your arguments, I tried to warn you, will hurt your ability to successfully edit here. "America Needs Jesus" as a User name does several things: it instantly colors ever argument you make; people automatically assume a litany of things about you. Some, that may be positive; others, it is negative. The idea of ] is focus on the edits not the editor, but your User name makes that a challenge for many people. Additionally, some people could take that as an advocacy position (which it clearly is), and it may just be spiritual advocacy to you, but to others it could be advocating erosion of the separation of church and state (America is not an individual, but a political entity). That's inappropriate for User names. People find advocacy disruptive, possibly violative of policy such as ], and even if you think there is nothing wrong with it, people are rightly asked to change.

	:Hey Reezy - you were correct, so I had no trouble supporting you. Floyd is a positive and valuable member of the project, but he shows how problematic it is to invest yourself too much in an article. I had that problem when I tried to bring ] to GA - I didn't have the temperament to watch it change, and had to remove it from my watch list. If I was Floyd I would feel proud that I was the person making sure my home town had a good and accurate article (I recently did a lot of work on ]). But Floyd has ownership issues. I tend to be too heavy-handed in argumentation against owners, but I respect people who show the care and passion about their neck of the project. Unfortunately, it's time-consuming and a hassle for other editors to deal with (like you). Now, if I start to argue over a ''principle'' instead of over the ''issue'', I know I need to step back. ] is the best example, where I argued based on principle, and upset a valued editor (]) over something I really didn't care about. Principle is fine for important articles and policy discussions; but in the end...a person has to ask if it's worth the drama and stress to argue and force your hand, no matter how right you are? In my experience, the answer is no. It also leads to burn-out. --<font color="#0000C0">David</font> ''']''' 02:08, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

I recently wrote both THF and Cool Hand Luke e-mails apologizing for my own behavior from the ArbCom.

	David, although I regret the recent developments re: NYB as much as does anyone, I have to say that your suggestion re Mr Brandt is most unhelpful. We don't do this out of any sense of 'vengeance' or 'punishment'. Whether an article remains on the database should be solely an issue of that article's merits; you should realize by now that any action which can, by petty small-minded critics, be perceived as spiteful and hateful, most definitely will be.

	Secondly, I had some private discussions with Brad, so I am fairly clear on his reasons. We were on good terms and had an understanding. As I hope I made clear, there was someone who did something absolutely inappropriate. The reason I described these things in veiled tones was that he had asked specifically that he not be discussed.

	I am neither black and white on issues, nor am I settled in my thinking. I think there is genuine debate to be had. You seem very settled in your mind, but very defensive. As you get older, you may come to see that pessimism is your friend, you will not be disappointed - an optimist is always let down as things are unlikely to turn out as they hope. I am a happy pessimist. It works well.

David Shankbone Creative Commons Licenses Are Now Public Domain

Hi all - I've been moving all my photography licenses—to the extent they don't violate respective laws and personality rights—out of the Creative Commons license structure and into the public domain. The most significant shift is that anyone can profit off my work and no need to give me credit. This license shift is evident on my Flickr, including photos from the Rolling Stones' last concert (which was amazing - can't believe a guy like Mick Jagger exists) to Lenny Kravitz in Montreal. Anyone has 'license' to change my Creative Commons licenses into the Public Domain. David Shankbone 07:24, 28 September 2021 (UTC)
