Hello,
I have written a chapter, Why Write With Wikis, which is due to be published
in a book next year. I would like to include a screenshot of Wikibooks,
specifically of
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Creative_Writing, as an
example.
I'd appreciate it if someone on this mailing list could suggest how I might
get permission (or at least some acknowledgement) to include the screenshot
in the book chapter. Thank you for your time and effort!
Regards,
Ashley Tan, Ph.D.

If you wish to include the Wikibooks logo (which is both copyrighted and
trademarked), you will have to make a claim of fair use (or something
equivalent outside the US).
If you don't need the logo, you can cut it out (or remove the sidebar,
which usually looks less weird) - then the screenshot would be freely
licensed: the page content can be reused under the CC-by-sa license,
which expressly permits you to reuse it as long as any derivatives are
likewise licensed, and you give credit. In the case of a screenshot, I
would /think/ a URL to the page it is a screenshot of would be
sufficient, but I can't be sure.
