 == Copyright - or left? ==
 Under what license is the content of this wiki released? I am a Wikipedian and would like to exchange some info between wikis, but without info on this wiki license I can neither copy content from it, nor can I copy cotent to it. If you would like to be compatibile with Wikipedia, please use the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Copyrights GNU FDL license]. --[[User:Piotrus|Piotrus]] 02:18, 15 January 2006 (CET)
+:As you can see from the rather shabby state of the setup and mediawiki detritus all over the place, we've not exactly put much effort into setting this wiki up nicely. But, as we're not a big site that solicits public donations a la wikip, quite frankly, I think we should get on with writing an encyclop... er... help site, rather than worrying too much about legal stuff that doesn't really have any good answer. Basically all prose on here should be considered as in the public domain, bar the bits which are from wikip, which are gdfl, obviously. Pictures are another matter though, as even screenshots of the website contain copyright images, and not in a format we could claim US law fair use on, which probably wouldn't be possible anyway as we're more EU centered. I'm not sure what specifically you'd like to make an encyclopedia article out of, but I could either write some ill informed and straw man [[AniDB:Copyrights|Project:Copyrights]] page like most websites have and could never actually enforce in court, or just copy the material across myself and save you the mental anguish of potential breach of a poorly tested copyright fudge.--[[User:Rar|Rar]] 20:35, 17 January 2006 (CET)
