Re: [OSM-legal-talk] Can I use this photo

In that context, I think 'others can use your content' is intended to refer
to users of the website may use it in the context of the website. But I
agree that it is vague and poorly drafted language (and thus I wouldn't
rely on it).
Linking is okay.

Thanks: I thought maybe 'others can use your content' meant we could.

I'll keep hunting, but no CC photos of that patch of water that I've found
so far.

Any problem with linking to it only, in the meantime?

No, that's just standard language that says Australia247.info can use the
photo, it says nothing about what OSM wiki or anyone can do. You would need
to get permission from the user. I suggest looking for a CC licensed photo.

[OSM-legal-talk] Can I use this photo

2020-09-29 Thread Edward Bainton
Hi legal beagles.

I have found a photo

that I'd like to include in the wiki.

It appears to be user content contributed to this page

on the australia247.info site under the terms
 below.

If the site confirms that it is 'user content' can I use that photo in the
wiki, with appropriate attribution and source info?

Thanks

Edward / eteb3
