--- Comment #6 from badon <[email protected]> 2012-04-22 07:54:49 UTC --- I just had another thought about a possible benefit to changing the way MediaWiki handles file pages. If different versions of files can be linked to each other in a web network pattern, it will allow people to find both derivative works, and source works. So, for example, if an image is altered and made part of a new image, the new image file page would be able to link back to the source image. That would give people a chance to see the original form of the image, and maybe give them ideas on how they can improve usage of the file in their own derivative works. I think WMF should take ownership of contributed content to make the issue of licensing simpler, but until then, this network of relationships between diversely-licensed source works and derivative works will at least give people something new to argue about, if it doesn't persuade people to standardize on a single license :) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
