Hello everyone, I want to add D logo to its wikipedia's article, but it requires license [1]. Also, russian D wiki page relys havily on the articles from the dpl.org (for what I've checked, 95% of the content is just translation). So, it would be nice, if content of the whole site would have some permissive license. I'm not sure how this works, but I think you have following options: 1. send "Declaration of consent for all enquiries" to wikimedia [2] 2. add comment to the <image> in the html source 3. add comment in the beginnig of all pages' html, just under copyright Licenses recommended for images: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:File_copyright_tags#For_image_creators List of all free licenses: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:File_copyright_tags/Free_licenses Recommended is Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution-ShareAlike [3], it's used for wikipedia's articles. In case you'll choose CC, but not sure which one suits best, here is handy helper: http://creativecommons.org/choose/ ----- [1] I think it would be ok to use it under "fair use" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fair_use), but that will preclude uploading of the logo to Wikimedia Commons, hence will require separate upload for every language (en, ru, fr, ...)
