Hi all. In creating my wiki I chose the Copyleft/GPL
license.
However, I am finding that some of my sources will allow me
to use web graphics and text for educational purposes, but
will not allow the **redistribution** of them. So I don't think I should
be using the Copyleft/GPL license.
I have not "opened up" my wiki to collaborators yet, so I'm the
only author/editor. Hopefully this means that changing licenses
at this point is not a great problem.
Can anybody suggest what license they think I should be using
and tell me how to change my license "midstream"?
Many thanks (in advance)

Actually, you can use GFDL and other licenses too. Here's an example:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Image_copyright_tags>.
This allows you to be open, and use not so open materials.
