Talk:Multnomah County, Oregon

message: Well, I was reading this article, and it does not mention that as of June 2001, it does not offer extension services offered through Oregon State University.  The extension service offered 5 different programs before being cut, which included 4-H and Master Gardener, just to name two well-known programs.--Rabbitdude 02:56, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

message: What is a convenience link?  Will Beback just removed a "convenience link" to a web site that I run.  So, warning, I have a COI here,  See my Talk page for details.  And I am not saying what Will Beback did is wrong.  Rather, I am asking what is a convenience link?  When I saw his removal of the link to my site, I agreed that was likely the right thing to do.  However, he did not provide an alternate link, so I looked around and found none.  Likely that's why he provided none either.  So again, what is a convenience link?  Is it a link that conveniently points somewhere where there may be other, better links, like from the actual publisher?  Because here I cannot find a replacement link.  Will Beback apparently didn't either.  If that it the only link available, then it is not a matter of convenience, is it?  Should that link to my web site be restored since it exists nowhere else and the publisher no longer hosts that article? --LegitimateAndEvenCompelling (talk) 01:29, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you, the webmaster, have permission from the copyright holder to post a complete copy of their work? If no then it's infringing on copyright and Wikipedia should not link to it. Links are not necessary for sources so long as the bibliographic information allows readers to identify the work.   Will Beback  talk   01:39, 22 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Only Fair Use permission, in this case.  I do not, for example, make an archive of vast amounts of copyrighted work like Media Matters for America does that it uses to its own benefit.  I only make a rare Fair Use copy.  This is one of them.  Sometimes I get written permission, but not in this case.  I have previously obtained written permission for other articles on Oregon Live, but not this one.  I'll assume, however, that Fair Use would not be sufficient for Wikipedia.  So, whatever you think is best. --LegitimateAndEvenCompelling (talk) 02:06, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

message: Can we replace the picture in the info box montage with something that actually is in the county? I'm thinking :File:Multnomah Falls on 2 August 2012.jpg or :File:Multnomah County Library.jpg or one of the Multnomah County Building (county HQ, which I do not see a picture of).  Also, how about changing the caption to "Top to bottom"? Jason McHuff (talk) 01:56, 2 August 2020 (UTC)
