Hello chaps, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Deletion_requests#.5B.5B:Image:C… The CC "BY" "SA" etc little icons are up for deletion... again. The first time (to my knowledge) was here: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Archives04#Imag… Also relevant is: http://creativecommons.org/policies#license It seems to me that they were kept the first time for expediency, and that our flaw was in not linking the image to the corresponding license text on the CC website (instead, it always links to our image page), and offering them as freely licensed by virtue of them being available on our site. There are coloured homemade alternatives available. Although consistency and recognisability are certainly important. But then, we're policy purists, after all. So what are the chances of (a) getting a technical fix so that these images link to the required CC license, in every use on every WM wiki? (then we are compliant) (b) gaining an exemption for them under the Wikimedia logos precedent? (then... wait, we're still not compliant) (c) asking CC if having the image description page link to the corresponding license is close enough + (b) ('cause we've gotta put /some/ explanation on the page itself) Regards, Brianna/user:pfctdayelise
