¡Por favor, no te limites a copiar!
Los recursos que citamos a continuación son valiosos, pero muchos son antiguos, escritos en un contexto determinado, partidistas, y no son en sí mismos buenos artículos para la Enciclopedia. La Enciclopedia de 1911 es un buen ejemplo de lo que decimos, contiene mucha información útil, pero anticuada en su estilo de escritura, con innumerables errores, y con abundantes datos que han quedado obsoletos. Si copias materiales de estas fuentes, para producir un buen artículo debes incluir una introducción, editar los textos, actualizarlos...
- Ultimas noticias: La iniciativa Creative Commons (http://creativecommons.org/) puede ser un valioso recurso para los autores de esta Enciclopedia. El proyecto incluye un "experto" para licenciar información con distintos requisitos (incluído el dominio público, sin necesidad de licencia). Incluye un directorio (http://creativecommons.org/works/) sobre sus trabajos.

RECURSOS GENERALES Y ENCICLOPEDICOS
[editar]
Gobierno USA
- Most publications of the United States Federal Government. Under the Federal Copyright Act material that is originated by the Federal government is not subject to copyright. In some cases, material may originate with a private contractor which assigns the copyright to the agency. However, material that is generated by the Federal government which doesn't have a notice can be copied. Entries below marked "(US Federal Govt.)" belong to this category. Note this only applies to the *Federal* government. United States state governments can copyright materials.
[editar]
Diccionarios
- Hypertext Webster Gateway (http://smac.ucsd.edu/cgi-bin/http_webster) A searchable interface to a 1913 public-domain Webster's dictionary, downloadable here: Public Domain Dictionary (http://msowww.anu.edu.au/~ralph/OPTED/)
[editar]
Otros
- Project Gutenberg (http://www.promo.net/pg) See in particular The Project Gutenberg Encyclopedia (although only Vol 1 (ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/docs/books/gutenberg/etext95/pge0112.txt) of this seems to be available). Note that not all of the Project Gutenberg text are fully in the public domain. Read the license of the respective texts carefully.
- 1911 Encyclopedia (http://www.1911encyclopedia.org) A scanned version of the 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica. The OCR quality is not very high. Some articles end in the middle and continue on the next page. The writing style is antiquated, and the material contains many factual errors. Anything taken from here needs fact-checking and editing. See Wikipedia:1911 Encyclopedia Britannica for ways of best using this material.
- The Household Cyclopedia (http://www.cairns.net.au/~sharefin/Cyclopedia/contents.html)
- The Jewish Encyclopaedia (http://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/index.jsp)
- This website contains the complete contents of the 12-volume Jewish Encyclopedia, which was originally published between 1901-1906. The Jewish Encyclopedia, which recently became part of the public domain, contains over 15,000 articles and illustrations. This online version contains the unedited contents of the original encyclopedia. Since the original work was completed almost 100 years ago, it does not cover a significant portion of modern Jewish History (e.g., the creation of Israel, the Holocaust, etc.). However, it does contain an incredible amount of information that is remarkably relavant today.
- We are considering inviting the Internet community to help us update the encyclopedia -- if you are interested in volunteering (as a writer, editor, etc.) please join our Mailing List. By putting this important work on the Internet, we hope to improve the quality of Jewish information available online -- and stimulate new discussion. Therefore, we have sections "Discussion Forums" and "Internet Links" which allow our visitors to converse and identify related websites.
- ibiblio.org (http://www.ibiblio.org/) is a major repository of information, "the public's library and digital archive". All collections on ibiblio are assumed to be in the public domain unless otherwise noted. Check for copyright notices on any material you wish to use.
