Copyright concerns on Gene Ritchie Monahan
Hi. Thanks for your work in starting the article on Gene Ritchie Monahan during yesterday's Art+Feminism Wikipedia Edit-a-Thon at Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia).

I'm concerned because it looks like you copy-pasted a lot of content from this site. See copyright report here. This goes against Wikipedia's policy on copyright violations.

Would you have time to address this? If you have help, feel free to reach out, or post a question at the Teahouse. = paul2520 (talk) 00:35, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Re: Copyright concerns on Gene Ritchie Monahan
Thanks for your comment,. You're absolutely right; all of the text is coming from the article on Monahan published in MNopedia, the encyclopedia of Minnesota history that I edit for the Minnesota Historical Society. Like most of our content, that article is published via a Creative Commons license (in this case, CC BY-SA 3.0). I inserted a template at the end of the article to indicate this.

The author agreed to this license in writing and is aware that her content may be used in venues other than MNopedia. I'd thought that this license would make it okay to reuse the Monahan text as the foundation of a new article in Wikipedia. I'm sorry if I'm wrong about this; if I am I'll work to delete it ASAP. I love the Wikipedia project (it is the inspiration for MNopedia, obviously) and want to abide by its rules.
