</div>In the last few news reports , the "copyright free" phrase is<br>
repeating. This is worrying.<br>
I think we should try to correct the reporters or try to give an<br>
explanation about the<br>
copyright of wiki project content. All the content in wiki projects are not<br>
"copyright free", but uses a permissive copyright or copyleft as its<br>
is popularly known.<br>
<br>
I think Wiki Activists also need this sensitizations to communicate<br>
licensing well to reporters & public.<br>
