Talk:Reg Weaver

Copyright

To Whom It May Concern,

I'm writing because an entry I created for National Education Association (NEA) President "Reg Weaver" was removed from this site. You posted a notice here, indicating that I committed a copyright violation by copying material from the NEA.org website. I work at NEA, and I posted the Wikipedia entry on behalf of our organization; we own the copyright to the material in question and want to re-use it on Wikipedia. Please advise me on how I can rectify this situation.

I also sent a copy of this note via email from my company account.

Thank you in advance for your time and assistance,

Hello, again. I saw the note you left for me. Now I'm confused. The language above states:

"If you own the copyright to the material: send an e-mail from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en(at)wikimedia(dot)org... permitting re-use under the GFDL, and note that you have done so on the article Talk page."

I did that, and now you're telling me it's not good enough. I've already written a bio of Reg once; there's no need for me to write another one. I'd prefer not to add language about the GFDL to one of our web pages -- it's bound to trigger a mountain of internal debate and multiple layers of approval that could take weeks to resolve. I just want to post this bio as quickly as possible with as little trouble as possible.

Well, honestly, it is going to change drastically anyways, so you might as well rewrite it now. You are going to have to include an infobox, get a picture (make sure if you upload it, you select the correct tag for it!). So, even though you do all that, I would say, rewrite it. Also adding project tags t this page.--Kranar drogin 21:38, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Guess I should have looked at everything before answering. This article looks ok so far. More should be added.--Kranar drogin 21:40, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
