illustrations of the methodologies, and I've found some examples,
labelled with 'materials may be reproduced for educational purposes.'
They are the sort of thing where in the course of a 10 page lesson plan,
there's one page for photocopying for distribution, where they have
relinquished some rights (but nothing clear like a CC license).
Does an encylopedia count as an educational purpose (or, I should say,
for a declaration like that, does Wikipedia count in the eyes of the law
as educational)?
S.
I'd say very likely yes. However we have our own rules and licensing. Except
for the limited exception for fair use images, Wikipedia content has to be
freely re-usable by anyone for anything regardless of whether it's
educational or commercial.
