==Suggestion for licensing== | |||
Currently our licenses on the site are as follows: | |||
*Copyright | |||
*Public domain | |||
{{clear}} | |||
This is not particularly descriptive for either type of licensing. This is why I suggest expanding into the following: | |||
*Copyright splits into | |||
**Artwork | |||
**Game sprite | |||
**Game screenshot | |||
**Scanned (such as guides or game covers) | |||
**Audio | |||
**Video (if applicable) | |||
**Copyright (miscellaneous) | |||
{{clear}} | |||
*Public domain splits into: | |||
**Public domain | |||
**Unsure | |||
**No license | |||
{{clear}} | |||
*Potentially look into a Creative Commons template that uses variable switches depending on the type used, for example <nowiki>{{CC-BY-SA|3.0}}</nowiki> renders the creative commons standard attribution 3 license. | |||
{{clear}} | |||
For those concerned this would be too much work to change existing files, unfortunately a majority of the 400 images I have dealt with in the past few days contain ''no'' licensing whatsoever. The introduction of more specific licensing, especially if sources can be more standardized, will help demonstrate why we believe files are fair use as well as being able to automatically categorize images by type. Most other wikis use this in practice to great success. Anyone have any thoughts? [[User:Trig Jegman|Trig]] - 15:03, 18 September 2020 (UTC) | |||
