18:18:25, 9 February 2023 review of submission by BenTuck34
I would like to have a wiki article. I took the paper about me signing the decloration of independence. :-( BenTuck34 (talk) 18:18, 9 February 2023 (UTC)
 * You would only merit a Wikipedia article if independent reliable sources choose on their own to give you significant coverage, showing how you meet the special Wikipedia definition of a notable person. This isn't social media where existence permits you an article.  If you do merit an article, you or your associates shouldn't be the one to write it, please read the autobiography policy.  Please also read about the good reasons that an article is not desirable. 331dot (talk) 18:21, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

19:16:51, 9 February 2023 review of submission by ZacSifron
Hello! I wrote up this article specifically for Wikipedia, and I also supplied the text to the Association of Jewish Libraries, who put it on their website before my draft was approved. The first draft was deleted for copyright infringement, so I had the AJL send a release of copyright according to the instructions at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Declaration_of_consent_for_all_enquiries. I recreated the draft and put Permission pending in the talk page. The submission was then declined due to the same copyright issues before the permissions were assessed. Am I missing something?

 * The template you show indicates that the volunteer response team has not yet assessed the email. When they do the template will be replaced with a permission notice. Until then, the material is STILL a copyright violation. Also a straight copy of an organization's website is not usually appropriate for an encyclopedia article. They are publicizing the collection. An encyclopedia article should be neutral information about the museum. Leave out most of the stuff about the collection - do a brief summary. Add the history, rewriting it in your own words.

 * I did write the history in my own words. I did not copy from Klau Library's website. I provided the write-up to another organization collecting information on Jewish libraries. That website published my draft before it was processed on Wikipedia. They have submitted a request to release my work because of the copyright confusion. Thank you for the feedback about the content. I'll take a look at it and at other major research libraries' pages. ZacSifron (talk) 18:20, 13 February 2023 (UTC)
