Good work
Hi Neurondev, and thanks for all the good work you're putting in on Wikiversity. :-) I just came here to comment on something you'd written that I stumbled across here: "Take the time to learn the material (if you aren't already an expert) and share (but do not COPY) it with others on Wikiversity through this course." Are you suggesting people can't people copy material here on Wikiversity? One of the ways I see for expanding learning material is by allowing people to copy existing material, modifying it, and then saving it on another page, thereby producing a derivative work (or "fork") - which is explicitly allowed in the GFDL licence. I see this as potentially productive and liberating. Don't you? Cormaggio talk 11:07, 18 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Cormaggio, I responded to this comment on your talk page. I was refering to copying material from external sources. -Neurondev 71.214.51.139 05:01, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Thanks Neurondev - yes, you're absolutely right that it's both wrong and illegal to copy large chunks of someone else's material - except for the standard scholarly practice of quoting. I had thought you were referring to material that is already on Wikiversity - which is free to be copied, modified, etc. Sorry for the misunderstanding - and continue the good work. :-) Cormaggio talk 12:43, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading this image. Could you please add license info to the file that you uploaded. Contact me if you need help doing this. You might also want to take a look at Template:Information which is a form that allows for detailed identification of the image so that it can be used by others. I'm also curious what the chip is.--mikeu 00:36, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
