Hi and welcome! Note that the contents of the draft you're working on are considered a copyright violation, even if you are affiliated with the center. Since Wikipedia releases its content under This Free License (which allows anyone anywhere to use it, re-use it, modify it, parody it, sell it for a profit, or basically any purpose whatsoever), we must ensure that source material is similarly licensed. While TSRC may permit this content to be used here, they may not want it changed, sold, or any of the other possibilities that our free license allows.
- So in order to use this text on Wikipedia, the source web page must release its content under the same license (which allows all those same uses I mentioned), or they can release just this text under that license (again with the same understanding of how it may be used by anyone). For instructions on how to do that, see This Link. That will entail some emailing to prove the owners of that text are in fact authorizing its release, and confirming they understand what that entails. In the meantime, the copyrighted text will probably have to be removed, but can easily be re-inserted once permission is processed. You can also just paraphrase that text in your own words, as if you were verbally describing the concepts to someone.
- Also, please read our guidelines on Conflict of Interest. Writing about your company is strongly discouraged, because it is intrinsically difficult to maintain the neutral tone we require. You are not prohibited from editing it, but you should expect a great deal of added scrutiny upon your edits.
- And lastly, if you are paid by TSRC for a job function that includes editing here, we do require that to be disclosed, for maximum transparency. If this applies, you can see the steps at WP:PAID.
- Sorry to bombard you with so much policy so early, but its better to get it all out of the way before you get piled-on. Once the above are addressed, it's really rather fun to edit here. Thanks and again, welcome! CrowCaw 17:26, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
