ALL POEMS ARE COPY-RIGHTED; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
NOTICE OF USAGE
You, the respected readers, are welcome to read, recite, perform
Ninie's poetry in your artistic programs, such as poetry reading or
cultural show, adapt it into a pantomime and/or a short play, in a
party, gathering, meeting, seminar, or a stage, however you see fit,
WITHOUT Ninie's permission. Ninie believes that 'ilm/ilmu'
(knowledge in Arabic) belongs to GOD, The Creator, and that it be
used and spread for humanity, education and happiness.
However, the statement that
ALL POEMS ARE COPY-RIGHTED; ALL RIGHTS RESERVED means you
MUST acknowledge that Ninie G. Syarikin is the poet or the writer/
author of the poem(s). This is usually done when a reader/ reciter
mentions the title of the poem AND the writer/author, like this:
"An Arab Boy Enjoying Summer In America"
By Ninie G. Syarikin
The statement also means that you may NOT claim that YOU are the
poet or the writer/author of the poem(s), since this will constitute
a plagiarism. In other words, you may not just recite or perform a
poem without mentioning who the poet is, unless you yourself are
the poet. This is the standard ethics in the writing world.
You, the respected readers, are also most welcome to translate
Ninie's poetry in your language(s), or in the language(s) that you
master WITHOUT her permission, and FREE OF CHARGE, both for
non-profit and profit/commercial purposes. However, for
professional and ethical reasons, please do NOT neglect to keep her
name as the poet as well as to quote her website as your source;
then you may write down your name as the translator, such as:
"My Soft-spoken General"
By Ninie G. Syarikin
(www.houseofcreativewriting.com)
Translated by (your name)
Although no need of her permission, and that your translation of her
poetry is free of charge, both for non-profit and profit/ commercial
purposes, Ninie would be very honored and most appreciative if
she is notified and sent the translation of her poem(s), for her
knowledge and collection.
It is only with the INDONESIAN and MALAY language translations that
permission MUST BE OBTAINED directly from Ninie G. Syarikin, if the
purpose is for profit/commercial purposes, such as for publication
in Southeast Asia, namely Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore,
Brunei, and wherever those two languages may be utilized. NO
PERMISSION necessary for social, charitable non-profit purposes.
Ninie G. Syarikin is the permanent holder of the translation and
translator's rights for Indonesian and Malay languages. She intends
to translate her poetry, one day, into both languages.
You, the respected readers and website owners, are welcome to
reprint Ninie's poetry in your website or publication, free of charge,
providing that the whole poem, her name as the poet, and her
website (www.houseofcreativewriting.com) as your source, are
included in their entirety without editing. Although not required,
Ninie would be very honored and most appreciative if she is
notified about your publication, for her knowledge and for possible
linkage.
This NOTICE OF USAGE went into effect on Sunday, January 15, 2006
and shall remain valid until there is a change in policy in the future,
which then will be posted on this website. Should you have any
questions, please contact Ninie G. Syarikin directly.
