Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

If you can explain some of the goals of OpenEd and the challenges they face, I will split our discussion into its own topic. My understanding of OpenEd’s mission is that it aims to provide: 1. an online K-12 educational resource library that also offers videos, games, and standards based courses fo...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

You work in the educational software field. What do you think about OpenEd (http://www.opened.io), where the WikiMedia Foundation Executive Director, Lila Tretikov, just joined their Board of Directors? I am very excited about the progress being made at OpenEd with correct material and age appropri...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

The articles and photos were either reverted or deleted even though appropriate forms were completed and WP: Consent provided. I completed the forms numerous times for several images, including one of myself for teahouse . . . yet that too was deleted. The discussion here is Why Neutral editors hav...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

I am saying that US copyright law is cited as the basis for Wikipedia policy yet censorship is what actually occurred as evidenced by you not finding the original text. Correct citations were provided, WP: Consent was also provided [which does allow for fair use]. If WP: Consent is no longer applica...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

My concerns are: 1. Copyright is the privilege of the author and censoring the author's work is not an appropriate thing to do . . . conflation of the terms copyright and censorship. 2. A productive educational environment is based on correction not punishment . . . conflation of the terms correctio...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

I have the Malcolm Knowles photo with permissions still in my files if anyone would like to reload that image to Wikimedia. I think Dr. Hase is done with Wikipedia so I would not suggest trying to reload his image since he provided permission 3 times only to have User: Diannaa delete the image. The ...

Re: Neutral editors who have left the project

Hi All, This is my first post to Wikipediocracy so please correct [but don't punish] me if I am posting this out of sequence. I was blocked shortly before User:Gregbard for the same issue, WP:copyvio, even though I had posted WP:consent for articles in question as well as WP:Consent for images of no...
