Hi Jason, No problem, as long as the videos are not edited.
We will not edit the video. Other people will be able to edit the video in the future once it is posted on Wikipedia, but we at Wikipedia have no plans to. It would be nice if you remove the ad for your website in the corner of your video though... :-)
Who are you to say that we won't edit the video? Maybe you won't, but maybe someone else will, in a way that makes it more useful, and then link that on Wikipedia. That's the point of viral licensing and ShareAlikes. I'm afraid "you're not allowed to edit it" is a deal-breaker.
Emphatic agreement with Ben. The video ''will'' be edited -- I personally guarantee it. Please ensure that Forbidden Places postmaster@forbidden-places.be knows that I have said so, and that you have no authority to revoke parts of the GFDL.
Hi Sylvain,
I was incorrect about editing. The video will be edited.
I believe that if the video is edited, the person doing the editing must label it as a "derivative work" of your video and provide full credit when they publish the edited work. I do not know the full set of rules for the licenses; those are available at www.creativecommons.org for the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License and www.gnu.org for the GNU Free Documentation License.
Is this a problem?
Cheers, Jason
