Joan and all,
It is unfortunate that you were not credited with your
transcription of your contribution to the Clark County
Message Board.
Marcia is correct that I, as WIGenWeb Project State
Coordinator, do not have any direct authority, for lack of a
better word, of the county mailing lists hosted by Rootsweb.
They do not come under the auspies of the USGenWeb/WIGenWeb
Project, even if as County Coordinator, you are the Admin.
My best advice is to work with the List Administrator, and
or Rootsweb to alleviate your concerns.

As for your concerns about the material we all place on
WIGenWeb Project pages, It is the policy of the USGenWeb
Project that the copyright of the material presented remains
with the contributor. To illustrate this point, the
following copyright statement appears on pages I put on-
line. I offer it as an example of what I feel portarys a
fair statement of the work we and our contributors all do.
