I suggest all contributions (and links from Wikieductor) be to content that is licensed CC By, or CC By SA or equivalent. Sadly, "Public Domain" which is the least restrictive license used in the United States is not a license that is used in many other countries (unless of course the USA wins its trade driven imperialism)... Nothing with restrictions beyond CC By or CC By SA should be loaded to Wikieducator.
As for your paper Nadia, if you signed a release of your copyrights to those publishers, then you cannot load to Wikied. If you did not sign a release, then you still own the rights to your paper and can do with it what you like. You can even serve the publishers a Cease and Desist letter, asking them to make it open access and freely available or face legal action from you.. that is until YOU release it under CC By or CC By SA at which point they can sell and restrict access to their copy so long as they attribute you as the original author.
