Folks, Ars Technica reports: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2009/04/wikipedia-suit-could-put-it… Wikipedia uses plenty of copyrighted material and trademarks under the doctrine of fair use. But a trademark infringement lawsuit against a couple of artists would put the Wikimedia Foundation on the opposite side of the fair use fight. Two artists attempted to create a performance art piece by establishing a Wikipedia entry entitled "Wikipedia Art," which could then be freely edited and "transformed" by anyone choosing to do so. The page lasted a mere 15 hours before being summarily deleted by Wikipedia editors and admins. Now, the pair's archive and continuing discussion of the project is being threatened by the Wikimedia Foundation's legal counsel, which has effectively threatened to pursue legal action against the artists for trademark infringement.
