The non-commercial license makes this wiki incompatible with all other CC licenses, including those of Wikipedia and some Fediverse sites. See https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Wiki/cc_license_compatibility. Why was it chosen? | |||
An example of disadvantage is this notification on my timeline after the "NC" was queried when I suggested that much of FediThing's helpful material could be duplicated here: | |||
"FediThing @FediThing@tech.lgbt | |||
"@RFPatterson | |||
"Unfortunately it looks like the licences aren't compatible, so they cannot use my text under their licence: | |||
"https://wiki.creativecommons.org/wiki/Wiki/cc_license_compatibility | |||
"However, the basic facts are in the public domain so if they want to write stuff in their own words they can do so." | |||

:I am an anti-capitalist, so I like anti-capitalist licenses.<br> | |||
:I don't think its incompatible. After all it says "unless otherwise noted", so you can copy something with a different license and note it.<br> | |||
:Also if say you wanted to use some text from here in Wikipedia we could simply make an exception.<br> | |||
