Joaquin, one good type of resource that I want you to be aware of is this: United States government websites. Because we funded those websites as taxpayers, there is no copyright protection and we can almost always copy information from them without attribution or restriction. If the information is unbiased, as in scientific terms or information about countries or numerous other topics, then copying from those websites is fine. The same is not true for state websites (e.g., California or Florida), because they often do assert a copyright. Also, there may be prohibitions on copying certain US government images, such as the emblem for a division of government like the CIA.

Federal government images are not bound by copyright restrictions. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 01:21, 9 July 2007 (EDT)

We still have to give credit where credit is due. Just because it is public domain does not mean we shouldn't acknowledge the source. At the bottom of the article in question, we should state a disclaimer something like ''"This article written in part from material contributed from the Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships of the United States Naval Institute, which is in the public domain."''

Not sure. I would just think at some point in the morning.--[[User:BethanyS|Beth]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 14:09, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
You see, tomorrow starts ''here'' in about 4 hrs 50 mins :) [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 14:10, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
:Well that should give you a good boost Fox. ;-) [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 14:30, 9 July 2007 (EDT)
==additional articles==
Until I get my specific contest page set up, I'm going to place my article listings here. [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 00:33, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
*second article is [[Stephen Decatur]]
==Protected page==
I'm not sure if Learn Together or Tash will be able to edit it now - they are not in sysop usergroup. Can we unprotect this page again? [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 11:01, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
==Early lead==
I think we have the initiative :D [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 10:34, 10 July 2007 (EDT)

==Blocks==
That Mtur is a rati-nalwiki troll, of that I'm sure. Probably Human or AmesG. I keep waiting for him to overstep the mark and then I'm going to hit him hard with the Ban Hammer indefinitely ;) [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 11:42, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
I blocked him for three hours so that he's not in our hair while we are trying to work! :P--[[User:BethanyS|Beth]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 11:43, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
Oh and I call it "Trash-inal" wiki.:P--[[User:BethanyS|Beth]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 17:30, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
:LoL Sweet! I like that name :D [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 18:39, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
::If anyone cares to take a real, careful look at their pages, they are truly trashy! This is the "new and exciting direction" that ex-CP user Tmtoulouse said he was going to take, and by gum, he's right! [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 20:25, 10 July 2007 (EDT)
==Changing the scoring system==
This is just plain dumb; you can't change the system after the competition has stated, surely?? Sorry guys, but this is asking too much now, I'm out of it. [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 15:12, 11 July 2007 (EDT)
:Fox, you can do well under any system. In the end it's about what we were able to produce for Conservapedia. I'm not sure what changes they're advocating, but whatever it is both teams will be affected and we'll be fine. Keep your chin up buddy, you're doing great. ;-) [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 15:28, 11 July 2007 (EDT)
:Andy told the judges they could make changes during the contest, and I saw these coming. You could see the judges (especially Hoji) commenting about stubs, and they're trying to give us more incentive to create quality articles instead of thousands of stubs.
:True, it would have been better if these changes were made before the contest started, but you saw the judges part was set up at the last minute and the contest began right away. I appreciate your contibutions to this team and the CP site, and I hope you will continue participating in this contest. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 16:10, 11 July 2007 (EDT)
Yes, please do Fox. You have been one of top contributors in the contest and if you leave now our chances will be slim. '''''Please don't leave.'''''--[[User:BethanyS|Beth]]<sup>[[User talk:BethanyS|Talk2'''ME''']]</sup> 17:11, 11 July 2007 (EDT)

==Keeping track of edits==
Is there an easy way to copy them from the log into the area they want us to report on what changes we've made? I was only giving counts the first day, but looking at what I see from others, I don't think that will do. Thanks [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 01:12, 12 July 2007 (EDT)
:I've just been copypasting from my User contributions list; the judges will have to decide whether I've categorised them correctly :) [[Image:User Fox.png]] [[User:Fox|Fox]] <small>([[User talk:Fox|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Fox|contribs]])</small> 15:19, 14 July 2007 (EDT)
== WHERE ==
Where are the girls????????? --[[User:Joaquín Martínez]], [[User talk:Joaquín Martínez|talk]] 23:54, 12 July 2007 (EDT)
==Governors and Lt. Governors==
I'm currently working on a table of the current Governors and Lt. Governors for each state at [[User:Crocoite/Sandbox]]. I'm still gathering the data to put in the table. Meanwhile I would like your input on how the table looks and any suggestions to make it better. I'm a novice at wikitables and you can edit my sandbox to show me other solutions. Once I get the table in place, I'm going to make pages for each of the governors and Lt Governors including photos. This project should generate a bunch of quality points for our team. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 11:56, 14 July 2007 (EDT)
I left individual notes on each of your talk pages to ensure you looked at this section. If I don't hear back from you, I will just continue my current plan for this section. --[[User:Crocoite|Crocoite]] 12:57, 14 July 2007 (EDT)
:As usual you have done an excellent job. ;-) [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 23:40, 14 July 2007 (EDT)
Good work! --[[User:Joaquín Martínez]], [[User talk:Joaquín Martínez|talk]] 14:01, 15 July 2007 (EDT)
We all have done an excellent fantastic WORK. CONGRATULATIONS... --[[User:Joaquín Martínez]], [[User talk:Joaquín Martínez|talk]] 00:55, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
:Thank you, and thanks to all of my teammates, but now it will take me forever to put my work in a form where the judges can look at it. ;-0 [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 01:13, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
Good idea. --[[User:Joaquín Martínez]], [[User talk:Joaquín Martínez|talk]] 08:22, 17 July 2007 (EDT)
