MediaWiki talk:License

Could we slightly modify our license to keep Wikipedia from stealing and bastardizing our articles? I dunno, it just annoys me a little that I keep seeing information I submit here referenced without any credit to this site... - Kuukai2 23:29, 18 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Not really, since Wikia the group that hosts our site has a clause in their contract that says absolutely everything that's posted here is non-copyrighted and can be taken by anybody. Not to mention all this stuff is technically owned by Namco-Bandai, CC2, and Tokyopop anyway. --CRtwenty 00:27, 19 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Post links to all the Wikipedia articles stealing our info. I'll take care of it. Kulaguy 00:32, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
 * CR: That's not true. If I write a synopsis about the Wavemaster class, that belongs to me, not Bandai.  If I post it here, then it's GFDLed though, so you're right that we can't really do anything about it.  But still, the GFDL requires that we get credit if they take infor directly from us...
 * Kula: Give me a little while, I'll try to find where it's really obvious. The Multi-Weapon creation process, for one thing, was completely original research on my part (by freezing and reading the screen in the opening video).  I haven't even seen info on it on Japanese sites (though you can tell it makes sense)...  - Kuukai2 01:16, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

Hmm... I've checked some of the .hack articles on Wikipedia, and some of them seem to be horribly off. The CC Corporation article has a History section that has absolutely nothing to do with CC Corp at all! I... don't want to look at them anymore. My eyes, they sting mildly. It'd be better if they copied MORE from our Wiki.--OtakuD50 16:56, 19 September 2006 (UTC)


 * I know that, that's the other part of why it pains me, they're bastardizing it... Looking at it some more, I suppose they do link us a lot, but instead of "links" we should be under "references", since they certainly aren't using very many others.  Most of what they have is patchwritten from this site, terms in their articles like U-zoku (I'm still waiting on the official race names), Professional Victim (my half-serious translation of "Nagurareya"), etc., give that away... - Kuukai2 18:52, 19 September 2006 (UTC)
