My thoughts after a ten second glance

To be quite frank, I've had a good day and now I'm tired and relaxing, so I have yet to pay your piece the attention it deserves. However on a very quick glance, it seems to be putting forth the idea that PR isn't special or new, it simply has to follow the core concepts of wikipedia, and will not in any way be treated differently to any other editor (other than if they appear to add blantant spam). That is a similar view on many accounts to one of the more influencial e-mails I read on this matter from enwikil, and indeed that very e-mail is why I've not been active on this front. It had a good point, and I suspect you have one, too - especially since you have seemingly written a PR introduction to wikipedia based on that idea (I think). Good work, anyhows LinaMishima 19:13, 5 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright

Don't say "don't post things that are under copyright" - legally, unless it has fallen into the public domain due to age, everything is technically under copyright. I went away and read up on it once, and it's a horrible mess :P Instead, talk about "only add material that has been licenced under the GFDL or a compatable licence". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by LinaMishima (talk • contribs) 7 September 2006.

That isn't quite the issue either. But I'll try to reword to accommodate your concern. - Jmabel | Talk 06:52, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Licensing at AboutUs.org

Hi Joe.

I've asked the guy in charge of AboutUs about the licensing issue. I should have some info on that in a day or two now. -GTBacchus^(talk) 18:45, 20 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
