Talk:Organic SEO Wiki

From Organic SEO Wiki


Your Wiki has a major discrepancy:

"Please note that all contributions to Organic SEO Wiki are considered to be released under the GNU Free Documentation License" -- Editorial pages

"People wanting to use the content that comes about from this project must get expressed written consent before using it on their own sites." -- About page

Contributors are put under the impression they are contributing to a free GPL project. But, in the second quote from the about page, you claim the ownership of rights to _their_ work. So, which is it? 80.43.178.212

removed the part about getting permission

Until I figure out what's best for the wiki, I removed the line about getting permission on the About page, I still want to be able to provide a PDF of the wiki for $10. Not sure if I can do that if it's GPL'd.

Yes, you can:

Great!

That's cool, so copies of it you can charge for as long as in one form or another it's free.

Sounds better now. Thanks for posting that.
