Joshua has an image of himself on his google scholar page [1], the page itself is copyrighted - is that ok to import? ---Yxuie-te (talk) 18:49, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

scratch that - same image on cc-by-sa on his wiki page [2] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yxuie-te (talk • contribs) 18:50, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

I think it is fine to use the image it is cc-by-sa. There should not be any problem in using images as long as they are creative commons images. To fix the stub for the page it would be better to pull off more information but you can not use anything like a faculty website to obtain the information. -- LoganZ22 (talk) 00:44, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

How to add controversy to living person?

Pearce recently wrote in the Harvard Business Review [3] that the solar industry could absorb all of the jobs lost to the coal industry as it shutters. In most cases the coal workers would increase income becoming solar workers and renewable energy retraining was endorsed by the U.S Department of State as a way out of economic challenges for coal workers. [4] This study caused controversy as GreenTech media pointed out that the study showed the investment for the retraining was modest - one year of coal CEO pay could retrain every US miner to work in the solar industry. [5] Medium [6] pointed out that many coal workers would be unwilling to move for work or were not likely to be able to be retrained as Appalachians are an"ethnic minority"[7]--Opalacathy33 (talk) 20:15, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
