If you wish to include the Wikibooks logo (which is both copyrighted and trademarked), you will have to make a claim of fair use (or something equivalent outside the US). If you don't need the logo, you can cut it out (or remove the sidebar, which usually looks less weird) - then the screenshot would be freely licensed: the page content can be reused under the CC-by-sa license, which expressly permits you to reuse it as long as any derivatives are likewise licensed, and you give credit. In the case of a screenshot, I would /think/ a URL to the page it is a screenshot of would be sufficient, but I can't be sure. - -Mike -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAksfspAACgkQst0AR/DaKHvdXgCg28pJBaJNpnSaybha6KIMMpVc hjUAoKz9q6AWalm6oJ0Jgh6GGPEzyxs0 =Tdjy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Textbook-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/textbook-l
