I'm sorry to hear that. "No Derivative Works" is the least sensible license for a wiki. Every time you edit a page, you are making a derivative work. has a good explanation of why using the non-commercial Creative Commons licenses is a bad idea.

Well, we are a business that *pays* the folks who create the work, so we have a special concern that folks will take the entire thing, mash it up and dilute our ability to pay those writers. It's my job to make sure we protect the jobs of those writers. At Weblogs, Inc. (engadget, autoblog, joystiq, etc) we had hundreds of writers getting paid millions of dollars... if we made the content available under a mashup commercial use license we could not have done that. For now, folks can just email me and if what they want to do is reasonable we'll participate. If there is money to be made we'll make an arrangement that protects our writers ability to be paid for their work. That seems reasonable to me. You know, not everyone wants to write for free for a venture-backed startup. If some do, well more power to them. However, as a writer by trade I find it kind of offensive that everyone at some crowd-sourced companies driven by writers/artists get paid... EXCEPT THE WRITERS/ARTIST. I can never understand why the managers, VCs, programmers, ad-sales folks, PR people, etc. can all make a great salary and the chance at millions in stock options, but the writers have to work for free. For a non-profit like the Wikipedia I totally understand of course... noble mission an all. for a for-profit company?

From my limited knowledge of the subject, it is when someone edits *your* work, or that of another, that a derivative work is created. It is the copyright holder who is affected. As a writer, I can see the logic in a limited licence especially as blognation.com seems to have imploded precisely because of writers (among others) not being paid. > You know, not everyone wants to write for free for a venture-backed > startup. If some do, well more power to them. However, as a writer by > trade I find it kind of offensive that everyone at some crowd-sourced > companies driven by writers/artists get paid...

To paraphrase Johnson, only a blogger writes for free? Some people write because they like to write and when experts write, they are definitely worth reading even if the prose is a bit rough and ready. Though often I'd far prefer to read the commentary of an expert than some journalist rehashing the latest press release. The concentration of experts and expertise has been one of the greatest effects of wikis, Wikipedia, and to some extent, blog publishing. > For a non-profit like the Wikipedia I totally understand of course... > noble mission an all. for a for-profit company? I don't get it. It seems to be centred on the idea of publishing. Most people tend to throw the word around without any understanding of the business structures that lie beneath the surface. At best, a wiki could be a kind of vanity press, giving writers/bloggers and audience in return for nothing but the fame. But fame fades quickly when you have to put food on the table. Real publishing is about sales and people getting paid for their work. Sometimes it coincides with noble causes and sometimes it doesn't.

I plan to release the code under the affero license, and haven't decided on a license for the content yet. What this is, is a service where you can add tags to any website, but the data is kept on a central server. I feel that tags are really search results, in reverse (the tag is the keyword, and the url is the result) and that aggregating tag information could help generate relevant search results. This is also a very bare-bones social bookmarking service, but my focus is primarily on the "hosted tagging" functionality, with a long term goal of creating a network of servers (all with free license for the software and content) and using the data to generate relevant search results. Right now, it's just me, but if anyone else is interested in this, I'd love to hear from them.

Here's what I mean: The most common and obvious motivator is business - to make a buck (we all need a few bucks to survive, so that's a given). Also inherent in people, to varying degrees, is the artistic motivation. Lastly, is the charitable motivation - doing something solely for the betterment of humanity. So I was thinking how it's interesting that charity and art are very compatible, but when someone does art for commercial purposes, it's perceived that the primary motivator has shifted to the commercial. They've "sold out". And I was thinking about the extreme views of intellectual property in this light; how on the one hand there is the commercial motivation that wants to get ahead by owning everything, and on the other the view that letting everyone have access to that knowledge will result in the betterment of humanity (the charitable motivator). So, what's beautiful about this project (wikia search) is that it seeks to harmoniously combine motivations. It's a huge challenge, but I think it's one of the great social problems of modern times. (And I just thought there might be folks in this group who would be interested in this perspective and maybe interested in discussing it.) By the way, Happy Holidays, everybody.

To: wikia-l at wikia.com Hi all, I'm new to the mailing list and arrived here after an email from Jimmy Wales in response to an email I sent him, I had an idea some time ago that I believe would help people when using a search engine. The idea is very simple, it's a wild card search facility for URL's, here is an example Go to Google and type www.cti*.com because you want all the URL's that start with "cti" and end in ".com" if you look at the actual URL's not all and in fact most do not start with "www.cti" or end in ".com" !! I first discovered this when I wanted to find a website that I had forgotten the name for and thought that simply by using wildcards Google would find it, I was amazed it didn't! Think of all the people that see adverts in magazines and on posters with web addresses, when they get home they can only remember the first few characters of the address! Also this search could be combined with other words to filter even further e.g. www.cti*.com car sales Would only bring URL's starting in "cti" ending in ".com" and having car sales in the page somewhere. The search should adhere to the normal wildcard filtering like in good old DOS Well that's about it, all I ask is you credit me properly and ask me before using this idea, I will always say yes unless it's used is unethical, I just would love to know where it's going to be used, maybe one day even do a Wiki about me :o).
