He was assigned to work on the Wikipedia edits with WhiteHatWiki shortly after his arrival at the City and described his role as a 'middleman' between WhiteHatWiki and Gonzalez."</li> <li>The advisor and WhiteHatWiki "exchanged ideas for edits over the course of a few months (March – June, 2024.)" He said that he "did not care for the Wikipedia project, so he 'slow-walked' it". He "recalls having several discussions with Gonzalez and others in the office about the status and content of the Wikipedia edits".</li> <li>According to the advisor, "the Wikipedia edits under consideration with WhiteHatWiki were frequently an agenda item during the full office’s Monday meetings". He "estimates the Wikipedia edits were discussed four to five times at these Monday meetings during the course of a few months" and "further recalls that Gonzalez was present for the meetings 'consistently,'" but "reflected that it is possible Gonzalez was not there every single time".</li> <li>Gonzalez's advisor "informed investigators that because he was slow on the project, Gonzalez would check in with him periodically (about once a month) for an update".</li></ul> <p>Both Rene Gonzalez and WhiteHatWiki CEO Ed Sussman were asked for comment when the story first broke. On August 7, I asked whether the mayoral campaign had paid for Wikipedia editing in making the edit requests on the article. An unsigned response from the candidate's official email address — presumably Gonzalez — stated that no campaign staffers had been paid for the edits, and referred me to the commissioner's office as well as the "paid editor" who had commented on the article’s talk page. Nobody from the commissioner's office (including Gonzalez's policy advisor) replied to a request sent to his official email address. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Special:PermanentLink/1251906771#need_quote_for_The_Signpost" title="Special:PermanentLink/1251906771">Sussman’s reply</a> on August 8 stated that WhiteHatWiki "only served as a consultant", and thus didn’t need to declare as a paid editor. He did say that that the editor was an "employee of the commissioner", but denied that the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:PAID" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:PAID">paid editing disclosure</a> policy applied: only the less-strict <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:COI" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:COI">conflict of interest</a> guideline. </p><p>The three main involved parties all seem to agree that Gonzalez's policy advisor was being paid while he posted edits to the article talk page. And WhiteHatWiki was being paid. But nobody made a formal paid editing declaration. – <span style="font-size:85%;"><a href="/wiki/User:Smallbones" title="User:Smallbones">S</a></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism,_Wikipedia_and_fascism,_and/or_Wikipedia_and_Donald_Trump" data-mw-thread-id="h-Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism,_Wikipedia_and_fascism,_and/or_Wiki-signpost-article-title"><span id="Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism.2C_Wikipedia_and_fascism.2C_and.2For_Wikipedia_and_Donald_Trump"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism,_Wikipedia_and_fascism,_and/or_Wiki-signpost-article-title"></span>Comparisons between Donald Trump and fascism, Wikipedia and fascism, and/or Wikipedia and Donald Trump<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism,_Wikipedia_and_fascism,_and/or_Wiki-signpost-article-title"></span></h3></div> <p><i><a href="/wiki/Pirate_Wires" class="mw-redirect" title="Pirate Wires">Pirate Wires</a></i> wrote an <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.piratewires.com/p/donald-trump-fascism-authoritarianism-wikipedia">article</a> about a Wikipedia article (itself about other newspaper articles), which as of press time was titled <a href="/wiki/Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism" class="mw-redirect" title="Comparisons between Donald Trump and fascism">Comparisons between Donald Trump and fascism</a>, although a second move request and a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Comparisons_between_Donald_Trump_and_fascism" title="Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Comparisons between Donald Trump and fascism">deletion debate</a> are both currently underway.

If you're lucky, you might get the record for longest AFD. But I think it might be snow closed as <i>no consensus</i>. As I just looked at it, I was thinking I might !vote keep, because of all the reliable sources mentioned, but then I'd really have to read the article to make a final decision and figured "naw".

Gonzalez early on had been the leading candidate. The likely cause for his loss was simply that he was too far to the right of Portland voters and that an organized "Don't rank Gonzalez" movement ran a tough campaign directly against him. Did the paid editing scandal have anything to do with his loss? Perhaps a bit, but he also had a couple other communication problems that together might have been more important (IMHO). <a href="/wiki/User:Smallbones" title="User:Smallbones">Smallbones</a><sub>(<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Smallbones" title="User talk:Smallbones"><span style="color: #cc6600;">smalltalk</span></a>)</sub> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2024-11-06/In_the_media#c-Smallbones-20241107034300-EF5-20241106175800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">03:43, 7 November 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Smallbones-20241107034300-EF5-20241106175800"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241107034300","author":"Smallbones","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Smallbones-20241107034300-EF5-20241106175800","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Smallbones-20241107034300-EF5-20241106175800"></span></li> <li><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-OhanaUnited-20241112042800-EF5-20241106175800"></span>For the Australian place name, I'm very confused about the PDF.

Which license? I'm not sure yet. <a href="/wiki/User:Josve05a" title="User:Josve05a">Jonatan Svensson Glad</a>'s comment is interesting though. It might not apply to CC licenses, but it might. In which case, it might seem that reusers would always pick the least restrictive CC-BY, but what if they chose CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0? It would seem to me that the next set of resusers would have to use CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0, if only because they didn't know that a CC-BY copy existed. The only thing I can see in the CC's explanation is that you can't impose additional restrictions, so it would matter which license applied first. In this case ... No, that's just too big a can of worms for me. I'll say that the least restrictive (CC-BY) must apply.

You may also license the same content different licenses on different sites - such as cc-by on Commons, but CC-BY-NC-ND on e.g. Flickr, but "All rights reserved" on their own website. There's nothing wrong with that. Ans as you say, he next set of resusers would have to use CC-BY-NC-ND unless they find the more free license option. Even on Commons some file may be licensed with both a "free" cc-by license, but also a nc-nd license as well (we even have some templates to support that). <a href="/wiki/User:Josve05a" title="User:Josve05a">Jonatan Svensson Glad</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Josve05a" title="User talk:Josve05a">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2024-11-06/In_the_media#c-Josve05a-20241114143500-Smallbones-20241113164900" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">14:35, 14 November 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Josve05a-20241114143500-Smallbones-20241113164900"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241114143500","author":"Josve05a","type":"comment","level":6,"id":"c-Josve05a-20241114143500-Smallbones-20241113164900","replies":["c-Smallbones-20241114151100-Josve05a-20241114143500"],"displayName":"Jonatan Svensson Glad"}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Josve05a-20241114143500-Smallbones-20241113164900"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <ul><li><ul><li><ul><li><dl><dd><span class="template-ping"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Smallbones-20241114151100-Josve05a-20241114143500"></span>@<a href="/wiki/User:Josve05a" title="User:Josve05a">Josve05a</a>:</span> I've quickly looked around on Commons and couldn't find anything.

Similarly, <a href="/wiki/File:US-power-strip-rotated.jpg" title="File:US-power-strip-rotated.jpg">File:US-power-strip-rotated.jpg</a> is licensed under both cc-by-sa 3.0 and cc-by-nc-sa 2.0. Although we could remove the “non-free” license, due the share-alike requirement (-sa-) the secondary license (albeit more restrictive) makes it possible for reusers to work with the more restrictive license if they want to incorporate the media into a project that won’t be as freely licensed. It’s about flexibility for reusers while still respecting the licensing terms. However, the PDF above I believe might wither be a mistake or they meant to attribute the licenses to different part (such as the text being ccc-by, while the design or media might be -nc-nd or something. But since they have published this, their original intend do not matter as much...) Also, they are also using images from Adobestock, which are not freely licensed, so the licenses do not apply to those images making it even more complicated to determined what is freely licensed and what is not. <a href="/wiki/User:Josve05a" title="User:Josve05a">Jonatan Svensson Glad</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Josve05a" title="User talk:Josve05a">talk</a>) <a
