Information icon Hello, Jehrentraut. We welcome your contributions to Wikipedia, but if you are affiliated with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Joseph G. Healey, you may have a conflict of interest or close connection to the subject.

All editors are required to comply with Wikipedia's neutral point of view content policy. People who are very close to a subject often have a distorted view of it, which may cause them to inadvertently edit in ways that make the article either too flattering or too disparaging. People with a close connection to a subject are not absolutely prohibited from editing about that subject, but they need to be especially careful about ensuring their edits are verified by reliable sources and writing with as little bias as possible.

If you are very close to a subject, here are some ways you can reduce the risk of problems:

Avoid or exercise great caution when editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with. Be cautious about deletion discussions. Everyone is welcome to provide information about independent sources in deletion discussions, but avoid advocating for deletion of articles about your competitors. Avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam). Exercise great caution so that you do not accidentally breach Wikipedia's content policies. Please familiarize yourself with relevant content policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. Flat Out let's discuss it 20:34, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

Image

edit

Flat Out let's discuss it Thank you for the feed back. There is a lot you have mentioned, let's start with the photo:

Photo - I am a bit confused why you removed the photo. I have permission to post it. The photo isn't copyrighted or taken from another website and I followed the Common Media Wizard form procedure to do so. What am I missing?

Jehrentraut (talk) 14:49, 18 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Flat Out let's discuss it, I was too impatience and wanted to see if I could figure out what I did wrong - Maybe it was posting an image from the Commons with the permission space BLANK (missed the license agreement part). I added the tag !{{self|GFDL|cc-by-sa-all}} /!. Correct? Jehrentraut (talk) 16:13, 18 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Jehrentraut If you go to the image at commons which is here it tells you that there is an issue with the details and how to fix it. Also, if you are the owner of the image, then it should have your user name in the Owner space. The reason I marked it for deletion is I found the same image in a google search and it appears to be copyrighted to someone else. Can you please clarify? Flat Out let's discuss it 21:49, 18 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Flat Out let's discuss it, I wasn't aware of the pictures use elsewhere. I will check into it and get back to you on this. Thank you - never even thought to check Google images!!

Flat Out let's discuss it,

It turns out many have used this same non-copyrighted image which belongs to Fr. Joe: book covers, Gala's, other forum's. To alleviate any doubts I have asked him to send the "permission-commons" email to Wikimedia.

Neutral point of view

edit

Flat Out let's discuss it Made some changes to make this bio not so biased and got the Wiki manual on Neutral Point of View. Thanks - if you can look it over and see if I am on the right track it would be much appreciated. I will continue by spending time to get to know the manual and apply the changes learned.

File permission problem with File:Father Joseph Healey in African Shirt, 2006.jpg

edit
 

Thanks for uploading File:Father Joseph Healey in African Shirt, 2006.jpg, which you've attributed to http://catholicstandardsforum.org/profile/JosephGHealey. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 15:11, 2 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • Dianna,

There must be some confusion. Father Joseph Healey sent the following in response to Ticket#201307241000676:

<contents of email redacted>

Furthermore,no "attribut[ion] to http://catholicstandardsforum.org/profile/JosephGHealey" was given, I only mentioned that they are using the same photo.

You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
