 * Agree, FWIW. ТyUser_talk:Ty 15:11, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * You shouldn't have to wait for a straight copy like this. Fire it with kill (or something like that).  ThunderkatzHo! 15:24, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

 * It was not a copy from Citizendium, but from Conservapedia. I originally wrote it on Wikipedia. Why was it deleted? Andries (talk) 16:01, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * If it's copied from Conservapedia, that also warrants the same action as were it from Citizendium. Both have "non-free" licenses. -- 16:51, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * The license is irrelevant, because I wrote it myself. Andries (talk) 17:00, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * When you write for a wiki under the edit box there is a little notice. For example, RationalWiki's says: Please note that all contributions to RationalWiki are considered to be released under the CC-BY-SA 3.0, or any later version (see RationalWiki:Copyrights for details). By writing for CP you have released your work into their copyright. ТyUser_talk:Ty 17:04, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * This is not true, I believe. Copying from Wikipedia to Citizendium and Conservapedia does not make the license on Wikipedia invalid. Andries (talk) 17:08, 17 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Ty, Andries is right, you are confusing licensing with copyright assignment. When you submit your content to CP, you license it to them, you don't give them your copyright. (You can't actually, because in many jurisdictions clicking a button on a webpage is legally insufficient to transfer copyright, to give them your copyright you'd need to execute a legal document. A license however does not require the same formalities.) So long as Andries is only submitting his own edits (and not any substantial changes made by other editors), he is legally free to submit them wherever he wants.
 * The same applies to RW - writing stuff here means everyone is free to reuse it under CC-BY-SA 3.0 or later; but the original author is still free to submit their edit to another site with different licensing terms. Others can't do that though, only the original author (or if there are multiple authors, one of them with the consent of all the other substantial ones) 11:07, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
