Please see this website http://www.indiawikipedia.com/ Do you think the website violates Wikipedia / WMF copyrights ? The site has nothing to do with Wikipedia or its cause too. Just bringing into the attention of all. Now that Mike is away, who is the next in charge for legal affairs ?
This is interesting!! The whole wikipedia is about giving away, sharing what you know and the content is all under CC. But here is a strong thought to protect and hold on to the copyrights of wikipedia !!
I have not checked the license of the wikipedia logos.
Here is info on our marks http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Wikimedia_official_marks
If they are modifiable and redistribution of modified images are allowed, will such images still remain as wikipedia property? Can I use such images/content on my website (any website for that matter) ?
Not without permission
Generic speaking, what happens to logos and names and other such intellectual properties in such cases?
