Talk:Ho Baron

message: I appreciate both Pyrospirit, and Toddst1 for their quick concern to new articles. I would also like to note that it should have taken longer than 59 seconds in the Pyrospirit's case to read the entire article. As for Toddst1's accusation of copyright infringement, I would further like to note that a brief conversation with either me, or the artist himself would have sufficed to clear any wrongdoing. As a Wiki veteran myself, I understand that many articles incorporated into this encyclopedia really have no place. However, mind you that Ho Baron is a renowned artist within the South Western United States. His works have toured various Southwestern venues. Had you taken a moment to research the subject of this article, I am sure that you would never have been tagged this article with speedy deletion. Please take more concern in what you wish to tag. Thanks again, Somnabot 22:52, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Let me digress, I am not the original author, I am only helping a new Wikipedian get it right. Please mind that this article was originally written by a new member hoping to start their hobby career as a Wikipedian. Don't scare them away. They may need more time to fully develop their proper habits, but didn't we all? Once again, I ask that you do your homework: Please write the author from whom you feel I plagiarized this material. Let me know what they say, as well as from where this material was plagiarized. If you are indeed correct, I will do my best to correct the matter. Thanks again, Somnabot 23:08, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

Also, could you please tell us who this new Wikipedian is who you are editing on behalf of? As things stand now, you have created a page consisting of copyrighted work with no proof that you have the author's permission to do so. Pyrospirit (talk · contribs) 23:51, 30 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I am the original author (and the new Wikipedian). The data on the TSOS website was written by Ho Baron and posted on the site. I helped write it. The copyright, such as it is, is mine and Ho Baron's, not the Texas Society of Sculptor's (they post what you send them - it is a complementary site available to members of the organization). You will also find much the same language on his website at http://hobaron.com link "Story", on his profile on Saatchi Gallery http://www.saatchi-gallery.co.uk/yourgallery/artist_profile/Ho+Baron/65741.html. It is the standard info. he gives out to galleries for his shows. When I first started putting up the site, today, I did get a message that the material might be copyrighted, but if I felt it was in error then I could remove the tag. I did so. I could not initially figure out how to leave a message (newbie, sorry) so did not. If you would like verification from Ho Baron, please feel free to contact him at h.baron@att.net. If there is something else I need to do make this well, please let me know, and I am sorry for the bother.
