Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
Multi-Licensing Guide
Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

What do you do: You can copy and paste the exact text for the lines under "Option 1" onto your user page and save them. This will create a banner which tells everyone that your edits are multi-licensed under the CC-by-sa license as well as the GFDL. – Ram-Man ^{(comment) (talk)}[[]] 23:40, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)

Early jazz

Thanks for your contributions on early jazz articles. My impression is that some of your points may be from some older popular writing on the subject that does not agree with more recent scholarly research; see Talk:Original Dixieland Jass Band and Talk:Buddy Bolden. Best wishes, -- Infrogmation 23:22, 17 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Unverified image

Thanks for uploading the image

Image:Charles kraft.jpg

I notice it currently doesn't have an image copyright tag. Could you add one to let us know its copyright status? (You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GFDL, or {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc.) If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know where you got the image and I'll tag it for you.

Pitchka?

Hello, my fellow New Yorker! Just curious if you know what you Wikiname means in Serbian, that's all :). KNewman 05:47, Jan 29, 2005 (UTC)

- Well, your Wikiname in Serbian means... ummm... p*ssy. "Little bird" in Russian is "ptichka", not pitchka (t goes after p). KNewman 17:29, Jan 29, 2005 (UTC)
  - Don't pay attention to this (but remember for the future :)), I don't think there are many Serbs using English Wikipedia on a daily basis, and I'm pretty sure the spelling is a bit different in Serbian, though it sounds the same. This is why they tell Russians not to ask for matches in Serbia (a match in Russian is spichka):). KNewman 19:05, Jan 29, 2005 (UTC)
