Submitting articles published elsewhere for usage rights?
Posted: Sat Jun 25, 2011 12:57 pm
Hi there, my name is Beth and I've just had my fifth article accepted it's great to be here, can't wait to meet everybody!
My question is this: I was wondering whether I would be able to submit articles I have published on another site (Wikinut.com). I've looked into this a bit and it seems I can, but for usage rights only, which is fine, but after searching the forums I found this topic: http://www.constant-content.com/forum/v ... tes#p63741
It seems to be the main issue is moderators being unable to tell if it's the same person on both sites, i.e. not being plagiarized. I publish under my real name on Wikinut and use a pseudonym here - would you recommend I change one to match? Will the mods be able to tell, or is there some way of contacting them beforehand? On Wikinut, there's a 'notes to the moderator' box on the article submission page which lets us mention if the article has been published anywhere else... is there such a thing on constant-content??
Thanks very much for your advice, can't wait to hear from you all!
