- Yes, it is error spelling, I might get around to fixing it, but it is png so it shouldn't be too hard. The Windler talk 10:53, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
- Actually, it is compressed now and I don't have the file, so sorry, but I couldn't be bothered recreating it. The Windler talk 10:53, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
Licence dispute
[edit]If the original map is GFDL how can this derivative work be PD? -- pne (talk) 08:34, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
- I'm not sure about the GFDL licence, should it be the same, like Creative Commons Share Alike licence? The Windler talk 10:47, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
- You should follow the terms of the GFDL if you create a work based on another work that is licensed under those terms; if you are unsure what it means, consult a lawyer.
- Inofficially, I would suggest asking the author of the original image if he would re-license it to you under an easier-to-understand license (maybe CC-BY?); personally, I find the GFDL annoying and inappropriate for images (which don't have chapters or pages).
- Failing that, you could licence your map under the GFDL and point to the original with its modification history.
- But what it really necessary to comply with the GFDL in the case of an image, I don't know. It's a pretty big licence and, as I said, not terribly suited to images IMO. The only way to be sure is to ask a lawyer. -- pne (talk) 12:37, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
I have revoked my public domain licence and instated the same licence as the original image. It's annoying, but I don't really mind, it's still free. The Windler talk 13:00, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
