User:Faedra/profile
Born in Gravesend, Kent, England, in 1959. I have lived and worked over the years in Reading, Watford, Leeds (Headingley, Chapel Town, City center), Bristol (Bedminster, St. Pauls, St. Andrews, Sneyd Park, Clifton, and Totterdown), Newark, York, Scarborough, Whitby, Brighton, Hove, Chatham, Rochester, Gillingham, Strood (Current residence), Margate, Ramsgate, Broadstairs, Swansea, Corwen, (N. Wales), Gravesend, Southfleet, (Rural Kent), Cliffe at Hoo (Rural Kent), and a few places I forget. I have been a new age traveller, a squatter, a political activist, Quabbalist, Pagan and author of several underground magazines. I am currently a single father.
I have worked as a male nurse, porter, warehouseman, supervisor in a warehouse, builder, and driver, and in my spare time have been a treasurer for the Malago housing society (Bristol), and a Secretary for several pressure groups including several uncoventional projects such as the Ramsgate Flat Earth Society and CRITICAL MASS.
I currently maintain four websites excluding any contributions I might make to the Wikipedia. I am confident with javascript, html, and web editing, but new to this form of data imput. Wikipedia is driving me to despair, but I promise to leave it with a few good pages from my archive.

I welcome constructive critism, it helps me and Wikipedia. I belive in the Wikifairy: [1].
If occasionally I breach a copywright en route, I consider this a part of the learning and editing process and imediately set about re writing the said item.
I am happy for the ITEMS listed above to be used under the gnu licence, at Wikipedia knowing the source was as cited above, by the original author: SN Holbourn. The Sources as cited remain works in manuscript form and unfinished until published.
On Copyright and the GFDL:
After submitting data to wikipedia the author still retains rights as the copyright owner, and may do with the original material as they so please, commercially or otherwise. There's nothing in the GFDL that says you give up copyright.
What a contributor does do, however, is grant everyone (in perpetuity) the right to copy and edit that work, both on the wikipedia website and in other places.
This means that a contributor can't prevent someone on wikipedia (or elsewhere) from altering any submission. It means a contributor has no control whatsoever over where their material ends up.
Lastly, the GFDL terms which every submittor agrees to each time they push the "save page" button means that they can't decide to remove or redirect stuff they've uploaded, whether or not they're the sole editor of that work: (which leaves one wondering at the point of the history page in the first place).
Wikipedia:Copyright problems is the correct (indeed, only internal) place in which copyright concerns can currently be settled.
