Editions
Hi. Wikisource is based on editions, as such we can have multiple copies of the same work if they are separately verifiable. I ahve undone your edit on billinghurst  sDrewth  12:40, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

Skylar Hurwitz interview on PCN - 26 February 2020
Why do you believe that this work is not covered by copyright? Please see Help:Copyright tags for appropriate tags for our works. — billinghurst  sDrewth  09:25, 7 March 2020 (UTC)


 * I added the pd-self tag. I think this covers copyright as I created the 'work' of the transcript.  I don't think there are any copyright issues associated with a transcript of a conversation for the case (as here) where it is between public figures and it has been made freely available online.  If I am wrong here, please let me know.

Person-based categories
On Wikisource we do not categorize by author or create such person-based categories. That is what the Author pages are for. --EncycloPetey (talk) 04:45, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
 * OK. I was led astray by the existence of the Category "Fireside chats by Franklin D. Roosevelt". So an example of a correct category would be "Fireside chats", and two examples of correct subcategories would be "Fireside chats by US Presidents" and "Fireside chats by US President Candidates"?
 * If so, these would allow proper categorization of the existing fireside chat transcripts. If not, what categorization would? Dennis the Peasant (talk) 05:59, 16 March 2020 (UTC)
 * The "Fireside chats by Franklin D. Roosevelt" has been the topic of discussion in possible removal. Some decisions are made without cleaning up 100% of what should be cleaned up.  The best place to list items is on Author pages, but the Fireside chat with Bernie Sanders is up for deletion. It is most likely not in the public domain.  Interviews with candidates for a government position are not public domain; the US law makes works public domain if they were created by the federal government, that is, by elected officials or employees as part of their job. This law does not cover speeches, interviews, or correspondence that was not part of their governmental duties. --EncycloPetey (talk) 15:02, 17 March 2020 (UTC)

Not certain that we are ready for twitter threads as publications
Hi. Saw you edits within the sandbox, and my initial thoughts are I am not certain that we would consider a tweet thread within scope, though maybe the community will have a different set of thoughts. Before putting too much work into that sort of construct, I would encourage you to take it to the community first. — billinghurst  sDrewth  23:36, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
