Why > would you want to rename the license something else? That's easily answered. I'm not "renaming the license". I'm proposing that there be a tick box for that very same license with a more friendly tag that tells the user "can be used on Wikipedia". The license doesn't change, it's just the way it's communicated. I love and support the Creative Commons licenses, but they can present you with a lot of reading. A decision that says "can be used on Wikipedia" would be much more immediate. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
