:You are correct that there are contradictions here. Although, I would point out that "should ask permission" is separate to "must gain permission". This is because Wikia acquired this wiki which used to be standalone (not part of Wikia). When it was on its own, it used a CC license, then a [[GNU FDL]] licence, now the CC-BY-SA licence. I would advise that the content is licensed by the licence in use at the time of contributing. So any edits you make to GTW now would be CC-BY-SA. I shall ensure this situation is clarified on the copyright page, but this is something I think we were putting off sorting out.

::Thanks for your reply, Gboyers. It would be really nice to correct this infromation on the Copyright page, indeed. As I'm not familiar with the history of the wiki, I can't do it myself, obviously. --[[User:Mondotta|Mondotta]] 01:16, November 5, 2009 (UTC) | |||
