Harry
Hi, I've placed a WP:CP notice on Harry W. Nice, but I'm hoping that you can either reword the article as described there, or sort out the status. While I'm not familiar with the Maryland State Archives and their policies, I'm assuming that they're not covered by the U.S.A. "no federal copyright" rule. --Zigger 15:30, 2004 Oct 26 (UTC)
- I cannot access the "Temp" page you moved the article to to change it.
- The procedure on WP:CP uses the "Temp" page to start from scratch when permission is not granted. Getting permission to use the Archives material is a far better result! Can you please get an email from them confirming that they release it either under GFDL or something less restrictive such as BSD-style or CC-by-Attribution, and hopefully covering more of their material? The WP:CP page has links to sample requests for permission. Please note that Wikipedia contributions are re-used, sometimes for commercial purposes. --Zigger 00:04, 2004 Oct 28 (UTC)
- I personally contacted them via email and informed them that the content would be used on Wikipedia. They replied: "If [the information] is on non-password protected pages [of the Maryland State Archives website] it may be used, as long as credit is given to the Maryland State Archives."

Hey, I just saw you increase the logo size on my update. Since I was demoing this for coworkers, it was well-timed. Anyway, I went to UMCP as well. What program/s are in you?--Howardjp 19:12, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)
- I'm an undeclared freshman, taking core classes... basically. :) --[[User:Tomf688|tomf688]] 23:26, Nov 17, 2004 (UTC)
Civil war map and green states
I see you created a map at American_Civil_War with much of the west coast shaded green, and information on border states omitted. A couple of us have discussed reverting it to a legitimate version on the talk page -- maybe you'd like to weigh in? Ben 18:59, 23 Nov 2004 (UTC)
