This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Monica Maimone, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.studiofesti.com/english/monica-maimone.html. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.
This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 16:17, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
Continuing copyright issues
[edit]This article began as a copy of [1] and remains an unusable unauthorized derivative work of that source. Consider the following from the source:
Monica Maimone is President of the Ipazia-Arte Foundation for the environment, whose mission is encouraging artists to focus on the environment. Among the activities of the foundation is the production of Deluge, presented in Laikipia, Kenya
The article says:
Monica Maimone is president of the Ipazia-Arte Foundation for the environment, whose mission is encouraging artists to focus on the environment. Among the activities of the foundation is the production of "Deluge," presented in Laikipia, Kenya.
There are other passages that follow too closely. Compare the source:
Based on Piscator's Volksbühne together with Dario Fo and Franca Rame, she created Nuova Scena: a utopian vision of self-managed popular theater. The most important production of Nuova Scena was Mistero Buffo.
The article says:
Based on Piscator's Volksbühne together with Dario Fo and Franca Rame, she created the theatre group called Nuova Scena. The most important production of Nuova Scena was Mistero Buffo.
While facts are not copyrightable, creative elements of presentation - including both structure and language - are. So that it will not constitute a derivative work, this article should be rewritten in the temporary space that is now linked from the article's front. The essay Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing contains some suggestions for rewriting that may help avoid these issues. The article Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2009-04-13/Dispatches, while about plagiarism rather than copyright concerns, also contains some suggestions for reusing material from sources that may be helpful, beginning under "Avoiding plagiarism".
Alternatively, if the material can be verified to be public domain or permission is provided, we can use the original text with proper attribution.
Please let me know if you have questions about this. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:13, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Hi. Thank you for your note. If you have sent your permission, then as soon as that is processed and cleared the article will be restored. If there are any problems with the permission, the agent who receives it should let you know. Unfortunately, we have to have this permission via e-mail or at the website itself, because we don't have any means of verifying identity on account creation. Since copyright is a legal matter, we need to go through some precise steps to make sure we comply. Under US law, all material is copyrighted unless it is specifically released or is ineligible (like a US government work). However, if you and the other web contributors at http://www.studiofesti.com intend it to be public domain, all you need to do is put a notice on the website indicating that it is. If you don't want to release the entire website into public domain, you can release just the specific page. You can also keep copyright, but license the material under CC-BY-SA|CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and GFDL, similar but incompatible licenses that allow for liberal terms of reuse and modification. In that case, all you would need to do is put a note at the webpage saying something like, "The contents of this page are licensed for reuse under the CC-BY-SA 3.0 License and GFDL." If you do that, let me know, and I can go ahead and clear this material. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 19:32, 29 January 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you. I have restored the contents of the article and noted at the copyright problems board that the matter is cleared. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 15:05, 2 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
