Another Wikipedia question on the wrong list :) but this is more related to Wikis in general so is presumably on-topic. If something is published under the GFDL, and copied in many places, but then someone makes a copy and publishes it *not* under the GFDL (thus violating the GFDL terms), who can sue for that violation? For example, if you made a copy of Wikipedia and didn't include the GFDL.
I read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights but was unable to find an answer to this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Mirrors_and_forks suggests that DMCA takedown notices should be sent by anyone who is a contributor to Wikipedia and hence can claim that *their* copyright is being violated by a copy that violates the GFDL. Does that similarly mean that any contributor would also have the right to sue if the GFDL-violating copy were not taken down? -Bennett _______________________________________________ Wikia-l mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wikia.com/mailman/listinfo/wikia-l
