Karamu High School Hi Gadfium thank you for starting the page on Karamu HS but a lot of the informaion is now out of date and the Karamu HS BOT will now administer information for the site  Thanks  Preceding unsigned comment added by     You are welcome to edit the article but you cannot control it Please add only information which can be sourced You also cannot copy information directly from the internet unless that information is under a suitable open content licence usually CCBYSA For the section you have copied from the school website to be acceptable you will have to place such a licence statement on that page Otherwise you are violating the schools copyright There are alternatives such as proving that you represent the school and have the right to relicence the material which would have to go to someone higher in Wikipedia than me Its much simpler to place a licence notice on the school website You can also rewrite the material in your own words so no copyright violation occurs  I suggest you always edit using an account since your IP address may change and that makes it more difficult to establish that the edits are coming from the same person You should also use an account representing a single person not the whole BoT See WPORGNAME  Finally you have a conflict of interest on the article This doesnt prevent you from making purely factual edits but you should not attempt to promote the school by for example using peacock phrases It gets tricky if there is material critical of the school  in that case you should add comments on the talk page rather than edit the material directly I accepted the removal of the section on the ERO crisis which was unsourced and out of date although quite interesting That was not critical of your school but I think it would have been more appropriate for you to have suggested its removal on the talk page rather than doing so yourself   Thanks for the message  Not sure where we go to from here or what is your motivation for this Wiki  Are you a past pupil  The BOT are confused why you are seeking to edit the Wiki when the school and the BOT are the legal owners of the school and its information  Quite happy to stick within the guidelines of Wikipedia but who is making the judgement calls on what is relevant content eg generally regarded by residents as less conservative where is the evidence ie facts to substantiate this claim  Who decides Karamus Alumni  All information on our website has been written with BOT delegated authority and is the proprty of the BOT so no problems there  Will follow up on other suggestions regarding edit accounts etc when I have more knowledge as still a first time user and know very little apart from the wiki page for KHS is simply not an accurate information page for KHS in  and the BOT are not happy as democratically elected trustees of the school to have this continue  Preceding unsigned comment added by     I am not a former student at the school I edit Wikipedia on many subjects mostly to do with New Zealand I am concerned that articles be accurate but I also make sure that no copyright is violated when material is added to articles  You are probably correct that the BoT owns the school It probably also owns the copyright on the school website It clearly does not own all information about the school and it does not own any Wikipedia article We cannot allow anyone on the internet to copy material from the schools website to Wikipedia simply because they claim to represent the BoT unless we have proof that they actually do so To put any material on Wikipedia is to licence it under Wikipedias Terms of Use which is under a CCBYSA licence I am not allowing the material to be added to Wikipedia verbatim without such proof because I am protecting the schools copyright The simplest method of providing proof that the material on the school website can be copied to Wikipedia  and any other publisher which wishes to redistribute Wikipedias content  is to add a copyright notice to the page in question saying that the contents are released
