Bug #: 32513
Summary: Collection extension still uses GFDL license
Product: Wikimedia
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
URL: http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=Commo
nSettings.php
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: Extension setup
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
http://noc.wikimedia.org/conf/highlight.php?file=CommonSettings.php has the
following in the configuration for the collection extension:
$wgLicenseURL =
"http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Text_of_the_GNU_Free_Documentation_License&action=raw";;
This page indicates: As of July 15, 2009 Wikipedia has moved to a
dual-licensing system that supersedes the previous GFDL only licensing. In
short, this means that text licensed under the GFDL only can no longer be
imported to Wikipedia, retroactive to 1 November 2008. Additionally, Wikipedia
text might or might not now be exportable under the GFDL depending on whether
or not any content was added and not removed since July 15. See
Wikipedia:Licensing update for further information.
I think that we may be creating books with an incorrect license and that it
should probably point to CC-BY-SA 3.0 ;).
