Robert, Rafael, Paul, Kate & Severin (+?)

Anything I've created on the wiki is either directly from me, or an expansion of something that Severin has started & asked me to expand on. I have no problem copying that text & pasting it into something else, such as an email, google document or whatever else is needed & I have no wish to have any 'rights' over it. If someone with greater skills than me can produce something useful from it on LearnOSM, that would be great. Whatever they produce would be a rewrite of whatever I produced & would be more recent & would supersede the existing data on the wiki.

I can see that the screenshots would need redoing, but I have the originals, which I can place wherever they are needed - they are obviously derived from shots of OSM, JOSM, or ....., but surely that is the case with anything else that is in LearnOSM?

As I always do, I would then delete anything out of date I find, and add a link to where the new info can be found.

Is there a problem with this?

Paul is saying that the OSM wiki license is actually more restrictive than LearnOSM, so it’s a problem with that license. We would have to make our license more restrictive – and hence less useful to others – if we wanted to go that way. Which is super frustrating of course.

Yes. But you can't use data from the OSM wiki for the LearnOSM project, if I am not wrong.

Maybe it would be feasible to change the license of LearnOSM to the
OSM Wiki license. As not many people are involved (I think) in the
English original version, not many people would have to be asked for.

LearnOSM is licensed CC0, so no permission is needed to take it and redistribute as CC BY-SA, or to redistribute as any license, including a non-open one.
