I don't know the answer. In my opinion, everything on Nupedia is
under the GNU FDL, but then again, I'm not sure what was officially
said or done back in the day.

Hi Mav,
I asked a question on the Wikipedia talk:Nupedia_and_Wikipedia about whether
articles-in-progress on Nupedia qualify under the GFDL, or are they like the
Nupedia "Chalkboard". I also asked at the Wikipedia:Village pump but I got no
response (the question has since been moved to the Village pump archives).
Some of these articles have been languishing since 2001 and it would be nice
if it were possible to use some of them as a basis for articles (or at least
good stubs) right now. I searched the Nupedia website, mailing lists, history
etc. and there appears no mention whatsoever of the copyright or licensing
status of the articles-in-progress on Nupedia. I was hoping that you might
have some insight. Thanks. -- Lexor 02:21, 26 Aug 2003 (UTC)
