Copyleft problems
[edit]I have deleted this article and recreated it as a stub. This is because the initial article was created using text copied from the British Civil War website. Their copyleft licence is not compatible with Wikipedia's
Wikipedia's Wikipedia:Text of Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License allows commercial distribution, but the current licence used by the the British Civil War website is Attribution-Non-Commercial-Share Alike 3.0 Unported, which places a restriction "Non-Commercial — You may not use this work for commercial purposes." which the Wikipedia license does not.
Providing the requirements of the Terms of Use and WP:plagiarism are met there is no reason why information from the British Civil War website can not be summarised and and cited like any other copyright text. But it can not be copied under its copyleft licence into Wikipedia articles because its licence is more restrictive than the Wikipedia licence. --PBS (talk) 16:14, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
