Sharing is Caring: A Conversation with Olympic Swimmer, Sarah Taylor, on Content Attribution
We’re lucky to have Olympic swimming medallist, Sarah Taylor, joining us today to discuss the critically important topic of content attribution, especially in the era of widespread online sharing. Sarah, thanks for being here.
Sarah: It’s great to be here! This is a subject close to my heart, especially as an athlete who relies heavily on media coverage and sharing to connect with fans and build my brand.
Moderator: Absolutely. Conexão UFRJ, a leading online platform, recently released guidelines on sharing their content, emphasizing the need for proper attribution. How critically important do you think it is indeed for individuals and organizations to follow these guidelines?
Sarah: I think it’s incredibly important. Imagine spending countless hours training and perfecting your craft, only to have your work shared without acknowledgement. It diminishes the value of your effort and contribution.The same applies to content creators. They pour their time, talent, and often resources into producing valuable content, and it’s crucial to recognize their work by citing them appropriately.
Moderator: You make a strong point about the personal investment involved. conexão UFRJ encourages the use of their articles, photos, audio, and video, but stresses the need to credit them and original authors. Do you agree with this open access approach?
sarah: I think it’s a great approach. Making content accessible to a wider audience is crucial for sharing knowledge and fostering engagement. However, access should never come at the expense of the creator’s rights. Clear attribution ensures everyone benefits – the audience gains access to valuable information, the creators receive recognition for their work, and the platform maintains the integrity of it’s content.
Moderator: Conexão UFRJ’s guidelines are quite specific, outlining how to cite different formats, such as text, photos, audio, and video. do you think these specifics are necessary, or could the approach be more simplified?
Sarah: While specifics may seem tedious, I believe they are essential. Think of it like citing sources in an academic paper. Different formats require different citation styles to ensure accuracy and clarity.
Moderator: Captivating analogy. What advice would you give to individuals who may be unsure about whether they need to attribute content?
Sarah: When in doubt, always err on the side of caution and attribute. A swift search for the platform’s attribution guidelines or simply acknowledging the source verbally or in a caption is better than facing potential consequences for unintentional plagiarism.
Moderator: Indeed, better safe than sorry! We’ve been discussing the ethical aspect of attribution, but are there any tangible benefits for individuals and organizations who consistently practice proper citation?
Sarah: Absolutely! It builds trust and credibility. When you consistently acknowledge sources, you demonstrate respect for intellectual property and establish yourself as a reliable source of information. This builds trust with your audience and potential collaborators.
Moderator: Excellent point. Sarah, what message would you like to leave our audience with regarding content attribution?
Sarah: Remember, sharing is caring, but sharing responsibly means giving credit where credit is due. Let’s build a culture where respecting intellectual property and acknowledging creators is the norm.
Now, we want to hear from you! Do you think platforms should be doing more to enforce proper attribution?
