Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Judith Enck has been reverted. Your edit here to Judith Enck was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (https://judithenck.wordpress.com/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 00:28, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

I am not familiar with your processes. I am not sure what you are objecting to. I guess you do not like a wordpress webpage for some reason but in my admittedly brief overview of your various disqualifications I did not see wordpress though I certainly could have missed it.

Speedy deletion nomination of Judith Enck


A tag has been placed on Judith Enck requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.albany.edu/ihe/members-and-staff.php. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —C.Fred (talk) 00:46, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

as stated, SUNY Albany did not have permission to copyright the material or even to post it. After being notified, they informed us it was removed.

I’m sorry about this. I just had my assistant put up what you sent me, and didn’t think about any possible problem. It has now been taken down.

I hope all is well. Best regards. David

If there is a copyright violation it is by SUNY Albany since they are attempting to copyright material that they did not produce. We will notify them tomorrow of that violation and either ask them to clarify that it was not their intention to copyright our material or that they remove the material from their website Dunleamark (talk) 02:05, 15 September 2017 (UTC) Mark

You appear to be a paid editor
Hello Dunleamark. Your edits look as if you are being paid, such as the edit you made to Judith Enck. Paid promotion is an especially egregious type of conflict of interest (COI). Paid articles should be submitted through the articles for creation process. If you are receiving or expect to receive money for your edits, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post the disclosure on your user page at User:Dunleamark. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. If you are being paid, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, please do not edit further until you answer this message. —C.Fred (talk) 01:07, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

I am not a paid editor

How does X work?
Your question.

Sorry

I have no idea how tno respond to your messages.

I am married to Judith Enck. She is a national figure as a recent EPA regional adminsitrator as a quick google search will tell. She had been in high demand by the media as she is one of the few former EPA officials willing to speak on the record. This is especially true after the recent spate of hurricanes since she had handle the EPA response to Sandy plus she was in charge of the Virgin Islands. She has been inudated by calls from national and internal media recently. A number of the reporters asked her why she is not on Wikipedia. She said I don't know I will see if my husband can take care of that. So I took her prepared bio and used as the basis to provide background info. Apparently SUNY ALbany took the information she had provided them and posted it on their website without her knowledge. She had recently agreed to serve as an advisor to Dr. Carpenter as the school of health at SUNY, she gave him her bio and apparently someone then posted it on their website without her permission. Certainly they did not have her permission to copyright it and I would assume that was not their intention. I have modeified her bio to provide more basic backround info, info about her key events, and provided background info.

I appreciate wikipedia but it would be helfpul if you made it clearer who to respond to your statements. I myself have done community media for the last 15 years, mainly in radio (e.g., Pacifica)

I receive no pay for more efforts for Judith. I have filed out basic info on my page.

Thank you

As somone new to wikipedia, it is not at all clear.

I realize that you have an impressive system and you are trying to deal with many people as once, so having such bumps is undestandable. But you have a system of responding which is unlike anything I have encountered previously and receivef repetitive messages from various people. Perhaps it is clear to those who are familar with the system but not to someone knew to it. It can be good sometimes to have people not immersed in your system to take a look at it and provide feedback

 * Some basic education in copyrights is required. You make it sound like the people at SUNY may need some education as well, but there may have been a presumption that biographical material provided to the was provided with the understanding that it might be published. Knowing for sure is not WP's job.


 * For starters, see WP:COPYRIGHT and WP:FAQ/Copyright. Your first stab at an article was deleted because it appeared to have been copied from some other source, as evidenced by the SUNY web page, which put a cloud over its copyright status. It was copyrighted from the moment she wrote it.


 * As for the speedy deletion notice, it's pretty clear in its instructions on how to contest the deletion. It's also not very hard to figure out who placed the notice and to communicate with them to learn more about the reasons. Governance of WP content is best considered a collective effort by a very large number of individual editors (you are now one of them), who work together to figure out what the rules are and whether any particular bit of content fits within those rules.


 * But you are clearly an editor with a conflict of interest, so the recommended procedure for COI editors is to make edit requests on the talk page of an article that can then be assessed by a non-involved editor as to what to do about the proposed changes.  &mdash; jmcgnh  (talk) (contribs)  04:05, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Judith Enck, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 01:09, 15 September 2017 (UTC)

So I have received conflicting information about how to contest your deletion determination. One part says hit a button here, another says go volunteer page. I have done both.
