The page for Little Earthquakes, a Tori Amos album, includes an extract from one of the album's songs. This seems a bit dubious, copyright-wise! I've removed the link for now, to be safe. Does anyone know if the extract is legally OK for inclusion in Wikipedia? Check the history of Tori Amos/Little Earthquakes to see the page with the link (damn subpages).
There was some talk about this a few weeks ago, somthing about the articel of Simon and Garfunkel (there is also audio there). The English Wikipedia calls it "fair use" and allow it. The Dutch Wikipedia calls it a copyright violation and does not allow it. Do not know of the others. -- giskart
Ah, that's a point. Forgot about the 5% of copyright material rule. HOWEVER, I believe in music isn't the track as well as the entire recording under copyright? i.e., you could only take 5% of a track? Anyone know?
