There appear to be misconceptions about the CC licences in general. They
may be free in the sense of no money changing hands but that does not mean
they are free in the sense of being without conditions or restrictions.
The CC-BY-SA licences that Wikipedia uses allow for use of material

deprecated or at least no longer supported by Creative Commons.

Do you think it might be a common misconception, perhaps?

The idea that NC is "open and free" is growing like a cancer in Brazil and
Portugal. I've been noticing that for some time already, and I do believe
we as a Movement should have some sort of plan or strategy to fight that -
and never indulge in accepting NC as a valid license for the Wikimedia
Where would it fit in Strategy 2030? Advocacy?

In my opition
We all agree NC licenses are poor. The WMF position was a reflection of the
community's position at the time and this likely remains the community's
position today.
If we as a movement however were to decide we want to allow NC video such
that we can use Khan academy and Ted talks I doubt the WMF

That doesn't seem quite right. The Foundation Board adopted a resolution
on 23 March 2007, which is published at
In 2009 Creative Commons published "Defining Noncommercial", a 250-page
report presenting survey data on what people consider to be
"noncommercial". There is a copy of the report at

Per "the Foundation has decided", it is not the foundation but our movement
that has decided that we will mostly only allow licenses that allow
commercial reuse.
By the way EN WP also allows fair use of certain images which may not

I'm not quite sure what you mean here. Firstly, this isn't the right venue
for a discussion of the general principle of non-commercial licensing,
especially as the Foundation has decided on the use of licences that permit
commercial reuse. And secondly, there's nothing to prevent a rights
Interesting. So nearly everything is covered by a place of work. So there
opinion appears to be that the NC license is simple a way to pretend one is
using an open license well changing nothing.

Hello everyone,
Just stumbled upon an page where Swiss collecting society SUISA lists
things which they consider commercial use within CC NC licenses, as
applied to works they have copyright on (delegated from authors who are
