--- Comment #4 from [email protected] <[email protected]> 2011-07-22 08:52:50 UTC --- Only to prevent this bug from being closed because: "[...] Because of the possibility of multi-licensing, we have to use checkboxes here, and allow for some degree of multi-licensing. [...]" Eloquence on http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#UploadWizard_gone_mad.3F Multilicensing of "not own work" is nonsense. The options almost always exclude each other. For example: * If we have Flickr-uploads, we only have to provide one option. * For US-Gov, dual licensing makes no sense * cc-zero + cc-by makes no sense * cc-by + cc-by-sa makes no sense * pd-old + cc makes no sense * fal (art libre) + cc-by makes no sense There are only a few combinations options making sense, but it is soooo unrealistic for "not own work" that it is used. (And I have never seen such a case). But there is still the possibility to add the license afterward on the file-description page, if required. Honestly spoken, I never saw a file *correctly* multilicensed uploaded with upload wizard. More often it was an indicator for copyright violations or just "not knowing" about licenses. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
