This means we have a WMF project that is officially
using NC and ND
licenses. Something which was supported by the Strategy 2030, at
least in
part.
As far as I know this was only ever in a first iteration draft
recommendation
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2018-20/Recommendations/Iteration_1/Diversity/9>
of
the Strategy process, and faced strong opposition
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2018-20/Recommendations/Iteration_1/Diversity/9>
so
went no further.
With regards to this particular image the Diff footer and Commons file page
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pi%C3%B1a-Seda-_Pineapple_and_Silk_Cloths_from_the_Philippines_12.jpg>
both
indicate it is in fact released under CC-BY-SA 4.0. The caption on Diff
should probably be adjusted to avoid confusion.
