include a copy of the licence with the work. An e-book is tricky as on the one hand it will generally be the case that the user will have access to the internet and hence a URL may be sufficient. On the other hand, e-books will often be used in situations where the user has no internet coverage (outside of a home wi-fi in a train for example). This indicate you'd need to include the text of the licence as an appendix to your book. Having said that, I will be happy to help you with this project and a credit line of "(c) Flagstaffotos" will be sufficient.

These adaptations are then part of a collection, which is not subject to the SA clause. I would have thought this use case would be discussed more on the internet, but I found it hard to find any examples or FAQs on this (other than the original license text). -- 725: 198: 21: 1115:! In what universe is that a good outcome for the project, or for the public that use it? All you are achieving is a loss of content, a loss of knowledge, a loss of choice. Personally I sleep well at night knowing that I've made a damn fine contribution to Knowledge (XXG) through the hundreds of high quality images that I've uploaded. Images which were enjoyed by thousands of people. 991: 1151:

denying wonderful content from the public, not me. You can twist the logic round if it makes you feel better. But your logic applies to those (from Jimbo and Eric Moller down) who refuse to accept non-commercial-restricted content on Knowledge (XXG). Are they denying wonderful content to the public. Are they misguided and delusional too?

I'm not stalking you Fir. I had Diliff's talk page in my watchlist and the subject line (Copyvio) caught my interest. Then I saw you were referring to folk in the GFDL/FP debate. If you don't want those folk to respond to comments, don't make your comments on a public wiki. Email Diliff if you want a

Thirdly, you seem to be quite ignorant of licensing law and in no position to postulate on how a good person could use the GFDL in good faith - in fact I would suggest you don't have any legal qualifications whatsoever. The terms of the GFDL comfortably encompass photographs: "This License applies to

Saw your notice on Diliff's page. I'm well aware of the phenomenon. I don't believe any good person, who understands licensing law, could reuse a GFDL-licensed image in good faith. The wording clearly applies only to textual documents and so is irrelevant at worst and dubious at best. This leaves the

The lawyer would say "Don't waste my time and your money investigating this stupid licence. You can buy a similar picture for

You know what is really bad for the soul, Colin? Not to mention deeply corrosive of the stomach lining? User-stalking. Now I don't know how you came to be so emotionally involved with this issue, but I would suggest you take a deep breath and lay off refreshing that watchlist of yours for a few days

I know commercializing Knowledge (XXG) work is tricky and so I’ve taken great pains to follow your CC-BY-SA license requirements.

I am very happy to see your comment here because your art appears most numerously in this collection. By your comments above, I think you will feel that I'm compliant with your intended license if I: 1) Add the GFDL in an appendix; 2) Add a credit that includes "(c) Flagstaffotos" And I'm thinking

Hi Jeremy, thanks for sending me this courtesy message. However, you are mistaken in thinking my images are licensed under teh CC-BY-SA. They are not. They are licenced under the GFDL v 1.2 and it is these terms you will need to comply with. One significant requirement of this licence is you must

encyclopaedia (free for anyone to use for any purpose) don't suit you, don't contribute. If you can't pick a licence that allows anyone to practically reuse your images anywhere, then why are you uploading them to a website that has that as its purpose? If you stop uploading images then its you

Secondly, I would suggest you get off your high horse and think about this issue a little more practically. This whole champion of a righteous cause act you're doing is just so misguided and delusional. By banning GFDL uploads (and lets be clear, this is evidently your goal)

private chat. As for removing wonderful content from the public. No, I don't see it that way at all. Knowledge (XXG) never would have chosen GFDL as a licence if CC was around at the time. It is a licence that is broken wrt images and collaborative wikis. If the terms of a

I want to help good people to be honest. And I sleep easy by not caring what the bad people get up to. Too many folk here give themselves ulcers worrying about what the bad people might be doing with their work. Like your post to Diliff. Not good for your soul. --

that you now agree with my interpretation of proper handling of derivative work and the CC license? I'm less concerned with the legalese here than in avoiding making you feel that I've taken something from you that I was not entitled to. Are we cool?

You are right, I'm no lawyer. But see the section "On the GFDL wording" in the debate. The wording clearly applies to textual work. It wouldn't say textual if it didn't need to, so that's a clear restriction, they'd have said "it can be used for any

You're quite right Dschwen - it's clearest in section 4(a) "This Section 4(a) applies to the Work as incorporated in a Collection, but this does not require the Collection apart from the Work itself to be made subject to the terms of this License."

Instead of taking us to your photos, it takes the reader to several redirects, then a shady request to install a movie-watching plugin. Just giving the heads up.
