fingers just itching to push the shiny new buttons :).

btw, could u move the new Newsroom in place of the old one. there appears to be some support for it at WC/proposals. i'd do it myself, but am not sure if a page-history merging is really required. see also discussion in WC - Article collaboration might be getting the axe.

 * Hmm. Not sure what you mean. Messedrocker already did it. Or do you want the histories merged? --+Deprifry+ 09:28, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
 * oops. hadn't noticed. and no, i don't need the page histories merged. Doldrums 09:31, 2 August 2006 (UTC)

Cuban copyrights aren't recognized by the US due to the embargo. Crimson 16:49, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

That was my understanding, I might be wrong. It is fair use in any case as evidenced by AP and other media picking it up. Crimson 16:57, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes but the US has not recognized Cuba since the 1960s so I suspect that it does not recognize the convention as applying in the instance of material produced by the Cuban state. I may be wrong, but in any case I believe the image is fair use even if it isn't public domain. Crimson 17:04, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

Why do you insist on removing vlid edits. Can I have you lovcation and first Language please.--Irate 10:27, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * I live in Germany and my first language is German. But I do know that "vlid" is spelled "valid", "lovcation" is spelled "location" and "Language" is not a proper noun and thus is not capitalised. --+Deprifry+ 10:31, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Can you explain how it's a copyvio? As noted on Google News, it's being used by plenty of websites. That would mean it was distributed as a publicity image, no? —     16:08, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
 * The images caption on the websites clearly credits "CP/Les Perreaux" as the author. Canadian Press is a news agency, much like the AP is, therefore it is of course used on many websites. Those websites pay for the use of their photographies, either through membership in the cooperative or on a case to case basis. --+Deprifry+ 16:16, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

copyvio?
hi, can u take a look at Strike of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz succeeded in all over Sindh, i've tagged it copyvio as it lifts numerous sentences and paragraphs from its sources. would like the tagging to be reviewed. thanks, Doldrums 17:40, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The first three paragraphs are heavily plagarised from the "Dawn" article, with only a few words changed here and there. The last paragraph is nearly verbatim lifted from the "Tribune", with only ""exploitative" Musharraf regime" substitued with "government". The stuff in the middle is basically just a listing of localities so that part is less problematic. Overall in all likelihood a copyright infringment beyond a reasonable fair use claim. --+Deprifry+ 17:51, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
 * thanks again. Doldrums 17:52, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Derivatives!
Ohhh, it's a derivative! The derivative got me! It's not even doom music!

(Thank God I didn't edit war with you over it.)

Bush and human dignity
i can think of a few people, who, if left alone with Bush, can get him to very quickly understand what is, and what is not, an "outrage on human dignity". thanks for the quote! Doldrums 12:06, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Nice image
US declares vital interest in space is much enhanced - thanks. Bernard Shaw remarked that US and UK were two nations divided by a common language, or something like that - hence 'programme'! Fentonrobb 23:20, 19 October 2006 (UTC)

Hello + Question
Hi. May I ask why you deleted the artical I am trying to create? It was quite rude. The News Catcher 19:33, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * "Additionally, please refrain from using Wikinews to promote websites" umm, its not me, i'm not trying to promote anything? I worked on that for a while any you just deleted?? The News Catcher 19:35, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
 * I respectfully disagree with your opinion. as one can see, the site is located under the moonfruit.com domain. Therefore the owner recieves no profiter at all for the site, I doub't they even know this artical was created.
