Talk:Brief intervention
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- Wikified. I'm not sure but perhaps some of this material should be in a general interventions section? TMac 06:26, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Copyright status
I tagged the article as a copyright violation because it appears to be taken the website of Dr. David Potsdam Hanson at SUNY Potsdam. User:David Justin, you claim to own this site; could you please explain? There's another potential problem: even if you own the rights to this interview does not give you the right to slightly alter the words and republish the words of the interviewee, Dr. Jason Kilmer. ×Meegs 19:41, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Meegs- If you think I've slightly altered Jason Kilmer's words and you think that is a violation of copyright, I can obtain permission from him. I've also used:
-
- Brief Interventions Can Reduce College Alcohol Abuse, all from :my website Alcohol Problems and Solutions, which contains additional information on brief interventions.

- You said on my talk page that it was your web page, are you a colleague of Dr.
PotsdamHanson? The second issue is about changing Dr. Kilmer's words, which could constitute to plagiarism, even with the reference at the bottom. I would first recommend that you consider rewriting the article from scratch, in your own words (you could still include attributed quotations). Short of that, we need Dr. Jason Kilmer to release the content to the public domain or under the GNU Free Documentation License (which means, among other things, that anyone can change his words however they want, and that other publications can print his words in any form). ×Meegs 20:57, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

- Great, just make sure he understands that he's not simply allowing his words to be printed verbatim on Wikipedia, but anywhere, in any form. Also, could you please clarify your relationship to Dr.
PotsdamHanson and/or his web site. ×Meegs 21:15, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

Here's the approval from Dr. Jason Kilmer:
Hi, David, Sorry for the delay in responding -- rough week. Great to hear from you! I approve of your use of our interview in the Wikipedia entry. Obviously, the interview was written in a more casual style, and when I describe brief interventions in a more academic forum I often discuss/highlight issues in a more scientific/clinical way (e.g., describing MI as a client-centered, non-judgmental, non-confrontational approach for eliciting personally relevant reasons for change and for exploring and resolving ambivalence about change). Unfortuantely, I don't have time at this stage in the quarter (final three weeks!) to work on this in any lengthy way, but would certainly be willing to suggest some edits/revisions if that would be helpful for you. Please just let me know. Again, so great to hear from you -- I hope we get the chance to see each other and/or work together again soon! Take care, Jason
