Hey everyone,
I've written a policy regarding fair use images on the Polish edition of Wikinews. We'll be actually working based on the Polish law - hence the title of the page is "Permitted use", not "Free use".
To quickly summarize the main points of our policy: * Every "permitted use" image must contain a link to the original source * Only non-free files can be uploaded to Wikinews - the rest should go to Commons * We can upload only the following: ** Company/organizations/etc. logos ** Press attachments ** Screenshots (or parts of it, so they won't be copyright infrigements)
Of course, we won't allow any derivative works uploaded to Wikinews based on copyrighted material.
Well, I think this is all. Our users are already leaving comments on the article's talk page, and from what I heard on IRC - they all support it.
Here's a link to the policy: http://pl.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Dozwolony_u%C5%BCytek
