# Per Andrea’s email I’m considering un publishing Erick…

Per Andrea’s email, I’m considering un-publishing [Erick Hitter’s presentation](http://wordpress.tv/2012/12/02/the-power-of-wordpress-roles-and-capabilities/)
that I recently added to the site. The comments aren’t helpful, and the video itself(
no offense to the presenter) are lacking due to technical problems, lack of a slide
deck of the presentation, etc. The way I see it, removing the entire thing quickly
solves both issues.

Any thoughts? Go for it or leave it up?

 3. Not in front of a computer right now, so I’ll look later – are Erick’s slides posted
    online anywhere? If we include the link in the description, would that help? I 
    haven’t watched the video yet.

 6. They may be posted, but I did not look. I’ll see what I can find.
 7. That said, the video is kinda bad as the projector was broken for the first 10 
    minutes, so the presenter (in a tough spot) had to wing it. It became an informal
    Q&A for a while as a result, and it is hard to hear the questions from the room.
    Even with slides, this may not be a good video to have on the site.

     * Yep, found the slides, and will add them, and keep the post up for the time 
       being.

        - I just watched most of Erick’s video. Once you have the slides to follow 
          along, I think it’s fine. The Q&A at the beginning is a bit tough – with 
          a bit of understanding about what he’s talking about, you can follow along,
          but for someone unfamiliar with the topic, those 12 minutes or so leave a
          little to be desired. Overall, with the slides, I’d say keep it.
        - Personally, I’d like to see an effort between speakers/organizers and us 
          to post links to slides with the videos. The best way is probably to encourage
          the posters to include the links in the description. Even in a video where
          you can see the screen, it’s sometimes hard to make out bits of code and 
          other things like that, depending on the color contrast.
