Warning: active arbitration remedies

The contentious topics procedure applies to this article. This article is related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, which is a contentious topic. Furthermore, the following rules apply when editing this article:

You may not make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on this article (except in limited circumstances)
Changes challenged by reversion may not be reinstated without affirmative consensus on the talk page

Editors who repeatedly or seriously fail to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process may be blocked or restricted by an administrator. Editors are advised to familiarise themselves with the contentious topics procedures before editing this page.

Further information

Enforcement procedures:

Violations of any of these restrictions should be reported immediately to the arbitration enforcement noticeboard.
Editors who are aware of this topic being designated a contentious topic and who violate these restrictions may be sanctioned by any uninvolved administrator, even on a first offense.

With respect to the WP:1RR restriction:

Edits made solely to enforce any clearly established consensus are exempt from all edit-warring restrictions.
Edits made which remove or otherwise change any material placed by clearly established consensus, without first obtaining consensus to do so, may be treated in the same manner as obvious vandalism.
In order to be considered "clearly established" the consensus must be proven by prior talk-page discussion.
Reverts of edits made by anonymous (IP) editors are exempt from the 1RR but are subject to the usual rules on edit warring. If you are in doubt, contact an administrator for assistance.
Whenever you are relying on one of these exemptions, you should refer to it in your edit summary and, if applicable, link to the discussion where consensus was clearly established.

The contentious topics procedure can be used against any editor who repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behaviour, or any normal editorial process. Contentious topics sanctions can include blocks, topic-bans, or other restrictions.

If you are unsure if your edit is appropriate, discuss it here on this talk page first. Remember: When in doubt, don't revert!

Request

Could someone take the photograph shown here and produced another version that is cropped to show only Jennifer Williams. I think the current photograph can stay in the article, since it shows her with Pence at work and is of interest, but I think the info box photo should be just of her. Someone did this for this Alexander Vindman article. VanEman (talk) 18:02, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please change my date of birth to October 11, 1982. Thanks! Jennifer Williams Jewill1 (talk) 22:59, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:CSPAN

Committee hearings are not in the public domain. --K.e.coffman (talk) 02:04, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@VanEman: Please see above; this image [1] is a copyvio. --K.e.coffman (talk) 02:27, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@K.e.coffman: I believe you are mistaken. C-SPAN recordings of US federal government events consitute a special situation in which users need only credit C-SPAN. Here is C-SPAN's guidance on this situation: "Under C-SPAN's copyright policy a license is generally not required to post a recording of C-SPAN's video coverage of federal government events online for non-commercial purposes so long as C-SPAN is attributed as the source of the video. However, simultaneous streaming or retransmission of the C-SPAN networks' video coverage of any event not in the public domain, live or recorded, may not be posted under any circumstances without a license.Keeping a C-SPAN logo on the screen during the non-commercial use constitutes sufficient attribution under this policy.Federal government events include: Congressional committee hearings" from https://www.c-span.org/about/copyrightsAndLicensing/

If you have a copy of C-SPAN's policy that differs from this, please quote it verbatim here. Thanks. VanEman (talk) 03:53, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@VanEman: From the link that you posted: "Under C-SPAN's copyright policy a license is generally not required to post a recording of C-SPAN's video coverage of federal government events online for non-commercial purposes ...".

Further:

"Video coverage of the debates originating from the chambers of the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate is in the public domain and as such, may be used without restriction or attribution."

"C-SPAN does NOT permit unlicensed commercial use of any of its video programming (including coverage of federal government events) whether or not C-SPAN is attributed as the source of the video..."

Only the debates in the full chamber of Congress are in the public domain. Other uses require a license. That's why Commons does not accept such images from Committee hearings. See also: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:PD-CSPAN. --K.e.coffman (talk) 04:13, 20 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I did not testify that the VP had spoken to Giuliani. Please remove that reference:
