[edit] Copyright
Please follow the full formal procedures as specified in WP:Copyright. It is not enough to give us permission to publish the material. It must specifically be released under the GFDL license. Be sure you have the publishers permission to do this, and certify it to the Foundation as specified win WP:Copyright. Be aware that this gives permission to all parties to reproduces and modify the material in any manner and for any purpose, even for commercial use, as long as the source is given. Relatively few publishers are willing to offer such releases. I need help with this. I am the owner of the website Dareassociation.org. I give permission to use material from the scoring manual. What else do I have to do. How do I get it relased un the GFDL license? I read over it and it does not give a set of actions nor forms.
You do it as described in WP:Donating copyrighted material:
- for a website: the best way is to place a copy of the GFDL license on the bottom of the page involved--if you have personally created the material in it and own the copyright. But I do not see any such website cited. If the web site contains material published elsewhere, you must own the copyright of the material, not merely have permission to use it for the web site.
- for a scoring manual (I suppose you mean the table for the stages), if it has been published elsewhere, you need to either own the copyright, or the publisher must license it under GFDL or public domain, see below.
- If you own the copyright, you place on this talk page a statement that you own the copyright and are donating it under GFDL, and you send an email from your official verifiable address to the Wikimedia Communications committee at the e-mail address "permissions-en AT wikimedia DOT org"saying so. They will then request confirmation.
If the publisher owns the copyright, and has given permission to you to make use of it for your own use only, or even for republication, you may not use it on wikipedia, because anything on wikipedia must be licensed to the entire world under GFDL for reuse and republication for any purpose whatsoever including commercial use. . The publisher can grant a license for this--they almost never do . If they do, you will have to prove it. Their permission must specifically acknowledge that they release it under GFDL or an equivalent CC-attribution license. It is not enough that they give permission to use it in wikipedia, because of the reuse permitted for our material. DGG (talk) 15:31, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- If this is not done promptly and documented, the article will be listed for deletion. Permission for WP to publish it is not enough
- Further, there is the material reproduced from "Introduction to the Model of Hierarchical Complexity” by M. L. Commons, in the Behavioral Development Bulletin, 13, 1-6 (http://www.behavioral-development-bulletin.com/). Copyright 2007 Martha Pelaez. Reproduced with permission of the publisher." The same thing applies. DGG (talk) 04:31, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
