From Mount Vernon to Crawford

We might need to use the book From Mount Vernon to Crawford by Kenneth Walsh for this article, as it could use some sources, even if largely from an NPS site.--Bedford 04:41, 5 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A great deal of content is taken verbatim from an article located at the Federation of American Scientists site at http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/usa/c3i/campdavid.htm[1]. There is nothing noting that the material is in the public domain on that page, and the main site of the FAS states, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED. We should look into this to make sure it doesn't violate any copyright rules. RobHoitt 00:31, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to be safe, I checked the NPS website, very little of the content here seems to be derived from that page http://www.nps.gov/cato/[2]. RobHoitt 00:39, 8 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
As per the instructions on WP:CV, it is possible to revert to a non-copyrighted version, but it dates back to a stub at 06:47, 12 December 2001 (UTC). Realistically, I can still preserve the gallery and links sections. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 00:18, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The Establishment section and Post World War II era and Modern era all seem to come from here. Some of the FAS material seems to come from here (the old Clinton whitehouse.gov site). FAS largely republishes material from other sources, so finding something on FAS without a credit is a tipoff that another source should be sought. I'd rather we wrote our own article but I think there is no copyright issue here; do others agree? --Dhartung | Talk 01:17, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I guess the ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. I think Zzyzz11 did the right thing here. (And I should point out that his user name comes from a way too archaic Zork reference.) Cheers! RobHoitt 00:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Obama at Camp David

Shouldn't this article be updated with news and photos of Barack Obama and his family at Camp David? It seems to concentrate mainly on Bush at the moment. 92.9.92.72 (talk) 17:10, 29 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
