canada education programme - problems with an article being re-directed
Hello Mken86, I will communicate with the other ambassador in the program AlphaQuadrant and get his point of view on this matter. The issue of student articles being redirected seems to be a chronic problem. Maple Leaf (talk) 21:27, 1 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi there. I looked into the matter with the other ambassador, and the only solution would be to have a banner at the top of your article. This is beyond my capacity and requires the involvement of an admin. Maple Leaf (talk) 18:18, 2 November 2011 (UTC)


 * Hi Mken. I know this isn't what you want to hear, but your topic practically (not entirely, just on a large scale) duplicates the article at Copyright law of Canada. I would recommend a slight modification to your project-- rather than writing the article you have been struggling to keep in the mainspace, why not expand on the already-existing article? I can see you have lots of interesting information to add to it, such as philosophies surrounding the law. If you choose this route, I would recommend informing your professor and campus ambassador(s) at the earliest convenience.


 * Also, there are merits for expanding articles. Did you know that an article expanded fivefold within the course of 5 days is eligible for a Did you know? feature on the main page? Also, if you're really ambitious, you could (upon expanding with your contributions) nominate the article for a good article rating.


 * Good luck! Bob the WikipediaN (talk • contribs) 23:58, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
