Talk:Mr. Schneider Goes to Washington

Untitled
I am the filmmaker, Jonathan Neil Schneider and I was the one who pasted the information from my website. As the author of the material I obviously authorize its use and would also appreciate the content remain.

I have not taken the time to improve this article. However, I have watched the film twice and I believe it conveys a very important message. I do not consider the film to be non-notable. Quite the opposite. I would rather the page remain. I do agree the page needs to be improved. Mark W. Miller (talk) 09:55, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

Having said that, I am disappointed to discover the article is largely material copied from the official website of the movie. Mark W. Miller (talk) 10:18, 22 September 2008 (UTC)

I have added a number of links to the article. I searched briefly for the CNN poll mentioned in the article, but have not located it yet. If you know of, or locate, a link or reference for the poll please add it to the article. I did find an AP-Ipsos poll from December 2005 that concluded:

Notability; format of copyright permission
With 7000 Google hits plus this Spanish-language link I got from Google News, this topic may be notable enough for an article.

The copyrighted information was added at 15:45 19 September 2008 by Joneil2008. This user was notified about copyright on 00:48 27 September 2008. Subsequently, at 16:51 27 September, the user posted the above message asserting copyright ownership and permission. I later (23:52 29 September 2008) posted an additional notice on the user's talk page, explaining that we need more than that. ☺ Coppertwig (talk) 23:55, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

There are no mainspace internal links pointing to this page.

I didn't find any copies of the website in Wayback. The website says "(c) 2008 Jonathan Schneider" at the bottom.

If we don't get permission in one of the required formats, we could revert to the short stub that was there before the copyrighted information was added: 22:57 18 September 2008 ☺ Coppertwig (talk) 00:11, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
 * FYI, if anyone does any reverting, it would be an admin according to the template currently on the page.--Rockfang (talk) 04:35, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
