Revision as of 13:08, 11 May 2005
You state that material here may be reused "without restrictions" -- unfortnately, that's not true of even most free content material, which generally comes a license which imposes (a very few) restrictions on re-use; mostly restrictions that ensure the free content remains free.
You definitely need to define the default licence for Wipi contributions. At the moment, you are using a large amount of Wikipedia content, so I suggest you use the GNU Free Documentation Licence by default, which is the one Wikipedia uses.
This will have two advantages:
- you'll be using the Wikipedia material with permission, instead of violating their licence
- It will also be possible to use material from the Wipi into Wikipedia.
This is a win-win, and only requires you to edit a couple of bits of text.

Thanks Algo, that was definitely our intention. I have modified the About Wipipedia to reflect this.

Do any of you now know enough to complete the Copyright page? (BTW for some reason it has more links to it than show up on the "What links here" page.) I'm sure I could fathom out the content myself but suspect that someone else can do it with a lot less effort.
