What is, actually, conspicuously absent from the
discussion is whether
anyone has a *right* to make a profit on these creative works. Copyright
is a social contract; society grants a work's creator(s) a limited
duration monopoly to allow them the *opportunity* to make a profit.
Outside wikimedia's remit. Wikimedia is interested in maintaining the
right not to make money of your work and any further erosion of the
public domain.
