I have marked the page on Video Interactions for Teaching and Learning for deletion as a copyright violation of the center's web page. You cannot use Columbia pages for WP without transferring copyright to us according to the GFDL license as specified at WP:Copyright; please realise that you must be authorized to do this, and that you must transfer all rights, including giving permission for commercial use. In general Columbia University does not give such permission. Even so, the article has to explain in a way suitable for an encyclopedia why the project is important, with references from outside sources. It did not do so. You are welcome to rewrite the article in your own words and resubmit it.
please check that the the pages you have been writing meet the same requirements. if not, they will surely be deleted as well. Please take a look at the information pages referred to in our welcome message, and then I will be glad to assist you further as one of the administrators here.DGG (talk) 03:33, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

I am emailing you the text. I strongly suggest rewriting--for one thing, its easier than getting permission!. It won't hold up in any case without strong outside refs, & may in any case not be ultimately considered notable--dont put it in until its finished or someone will delete it.
