Dear aggeboe:
I am an editor of German Wikipedia (de.wikipedia.org), a multilingual
project to create a complete, accurate, and open-content encyclopedia.
Volunteers from around the world collaboratively edit Wikipedia, which
is one of many projects of the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation
(wikimediafoundation.org). We depend on (photography/art/diagrams/charts) 
to clearly illustrate our articles.

I enjoyed your photographs 
at your site. (e.g. DSC00174 the CFAO Building in Gambia (is it?))
However, we can only use your material if you are willing to grant
permission for it to be used under terms of the GNU Free Documentation
License (GNU-FDL, or GFDL for short). This means that although you
retain the copyright and authorship of your own work, you are granting
permission for others to use, copy, and share your materials freely,
and even potentially use them commercially, so long as they do not try
to claim the copyright themselves, or try to prevent others from using
or copying them freely (e.g., "share-alike"). You can read this
license in full at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text of the GFDL .
Please do note that your contributions may not remain intact as
submitted; this license, as well as the collaborative nature of our
project, also entitles others to edit, alter, and update them at will,
i.e., to keep up with new information, or suit the text to a different
purpose. However, the license also expressly protects authors "from
being considered responsible for modifications made by others."

If you do agree to grant permission for use, we will credit you, 
state the image was based on your work and is used with your
permission, and provide a link back to your website.

Or is possible to change your licence from creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.0/ 
to creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/ ?

You are obviously an expert photographer. 
I hope you will consider accepting our request.

Warmest regards,
