The home page currently says:
The text I cited has now been changed to "All text on Wikimedia sites is available as Creative Commons material".
This does not resolve the issue I raised above; as my first bullet point applies not only to media files, but also to numerous texts on Wikimedia sites; not least a large part of Wikisource.
This is still the case. When will it be fixed? Will it?
Furthermore, the "Sesame Street" image used on the site's home page and the linked article, is labelled on Commons: "This work might not be available under a free license in the United States because it is based on an artwork or sculpture that may be protected by copyright under U.S. law."
This image is still on the pages I mentioned.
And still is; over two weeks after I first pointed it out. No-one at WMF has even acknowledged my comment.
