I think that Jarekt has expressed the position of most of the Wikidata contributors : facts can't be copyrighted. Do all international laws recognize this ? I don't know.

I also think that most of the Wikimedia contributors think that weblinks to "legal" (as perceived in a Western country) ressources is ok, whatever the licence of the ressources. Do all international laws recognize this ? I don't know, but I'm more confident on this point than on the first one.

There is a recent and specific case who botter me : the little images showed in P18 since about a month. I think a link to a Commons image in Wikidata is ok, but showing a little image on Wikidata user interface seems to me the kind of reutilisation who don't respect all non-CC0 images present on Commons.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T193728EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: Simon_VilleneuveCc: Simon_Villeneuve, Jarekt, Rspeer, OhKayeSierra, Aschmidt, AndrewSu, Mateusz_Konieczny, Maxlath, Huji, Glrx, Realworldobject, Ltrlg, Papapep, Tgr, Ayack, Gnom1, MichaelMaggs, MisterSynergy, Pasleim, Cirdan, 0x010C, Sylvain_WMFr, Denny, Ivanhercaz, Pintoch, Lydia_Pintscher, Lea_Lacroix_WMDE, Aklapper, Psychoslave, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, ZhouZ, Mpaulson, Wikidata-bugs, aude, jayvdb, Slaporte, Mbch331, Jay8g___

It has been asserted here several times that OSM data has been wholesale imported into Wikidata - do we know that has happened? Wikidata has two properties related to OSM, one that relates wikidata items to OSM tags like "lighthouse", and one that is essentially deprecated (see T145284), so I assume those are not the issue. According to https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:OpenStreetMap (text which has been there since at least last September) "it is not possible to import coordinates from OpenStreetMap to Wikidata". If the issue is coordinates imported via wikipedia infoboxes that originated with OSM, I can see there might be an issue there, and maybe that should be added to Denny's suggested question in some fashion. But as far as actual importing of OSM data, the only specific cases that I noticed explicitly cited above are (A) a bot request that has been rejected, and (B) a discussion from 2013 where the copyright issue was explicitly raised right away.TASK DETAILhttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T193728EMAIL PREFERENCEShttps://phabricator.wikimedia.org/settings/panel/emailpreferences/To: ArthurPSmithCc: ArthurPSmith, SimonPoole, Scott_WorldUnivAndSch, Micru, lisong, Lofhi, Nemo_bis, TomT0m, jrbs, EgonWillighagen, sarojdhakal, Agabi10, NMaia, Simon_Villeneuve, Jarekt, Rspeer, OhKayeSierra, Aschmidt, AndrewSu, Mateusz_Konieczny, Maxlath, Huji, Glrx, Realworldobject, Ltrlg, Papapep, Tgr, Ayack, Gnom1, MichaelMaggs, MisterSynergy, Pasleim, Cirdan, 0x010C, Sylvain_WMFr, Denny, Ivanhercaz, Pintoch, Lydia_Pintscher, Lea_Lacroix_WMDE, Aklapper, Psychoslave, Lahi, Gq86, GoranSMilovanovic, QZanden, LawExplorer, ZhouZ, Mpaulson, Wikidata-bugs, aude, jayvdb, Slaporte, Mbch331, Jay8g___
