I'm sure thats correct and it also makes it easy to resolve - get permission. I think they're fairly accessible through their website, so an editor could simply email them, explain what's needed and ask them to release an image under a compatible license or to provide one that's already been released under a free license. These types of disputes are usually easier and quicker to actually resolve than it is to complain and argue about it. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
