User talk:SWozniak
Welcome!
[edit]Hi SWozniak, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!
- Editing tutorial, learn to have fun with Wikipedia.
- Picture tutorial, instructions on uploading images.
- How to write a great article, to make it an featured article status.
- Manual of Style, how articles should be written.
Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :
Oh yes, don't forget to sign when you write on talk pages, simply type four tildes. This will automatically add your name and the time after your comments. And finally, if you have any questions or doubts, don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Once again, welcome! =)

The Marching Virginians
[edit]Please do not create this article again with the same text. If you want the article not to be deleted, write it in your own words instead of copying from another web page. Copying text from other web pages is a copyright violation. Kimchi.sg 23:02, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
You can ask the webmaster to send a email to [permissions at wikimedia dot org]. For text to be included in Wikipedia, it must be licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License (text); the email must explicitly say that the text is released under the GFDL.
Alternatively, insert a disclaimer somewhere on the webpage itself, that states the text is released under the GFDL. Kimchi.sg 23:22, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
The lack of a copyright notice ("(c) 2006 The Marching Virginians") at the page where the article was taken from does not mean that there's no copyright on the page. The creator of a webpage holds copyright on it immediately and automatically once it has been published on the Internet, no formal registration or notice is needed; the U.S. Copyright Office confirms this. [1]
Therefore, only an explicit statement (either by email or on the webpage) that states the text is released under the GFDL, makes it usable on Wikipedia. Kimchi.sg 23:51, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit]It didn't seem to have a source. dposse 13:06, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
- We need verification of that from a reliable source. I'm sorry, but we can't just take your word on that. That's a wikipedia guideline. dposse 14:26, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
iWoz
[edit]BTW, reading iWoz right now. Great book. :-) I'm one of those (gazillions) that can code 6502 without an assembler, though always preferred working in minimon... Twinotter 22:45, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
