Hi Lydia and Wikidatans,
My questions about C.C. Wikidata integration / interaction have to do with
Creative Commons' entities /resources, as examples of external sister
projects. Are there any examples so far of Creative Commons' licensed
databases that interact/integrate/interoperate with Wikida

Hi Lydia and Wikidatans,
In what ways are Wikidatan developers planning for Creative Commons'
databases for images, etc. - -http://search.creativecommons.org/ - - as
well as for interoperability, - so, beyond WikiCommons' file-topic
searching and storage images - especially if these CC databases a
Hey :)
Just an update from my side: We will keep non-Commons images in mind
when designing the system. The goal is to provide them with structured
data support as well. However initially we will concentrate on Commons
to get it to work there as we can have the highest impact there.
Cheers

Hoi,
The consequence would be that we cannot deal with these files. We cannot
even know what they are about, We cannot target them for replacement by
freely licensed files.
Having access to them, knowing about them is different from using them.
Files with a "fair use" rationale are categorised by
Except that the problem isn't incompatible licenses; its lack of licenses.
Most pix uploaded to wikipedias have no license. They are there under fair
use rationales which are specific to each use and to the laws which apply
in countries using that language. These pix are not free to reuse. Each

Hoi,
Why would it ? A wiki would have a list of permissible licenses. That has
nothing to do with Commons and everything with standardising licenses so
that there is only one for each license.
Thanks,

Problem is, when somebody translate article from en.wiki and copy all

Incompatible how ? The fact that some wikis allow for licenses that Commons
does not allow for does NOT make them incompatible. It means that they use
licenses in addition to Commons.. Technically that is no big deal at all.
Thanks,

Hoi,
James, you assume a database but in reality it is not "setting an index" at
all. In essence this is NOT a relational database. Therefore it is NOT that
simplel.
Also the Wikidatification is a failure when it does not work for all
languages equally well. That is not to say that the results wil
Yes.
Just to be clear, if we did "converge all the images to live in one
place", I am not suggesting they would all be free, and I'm not
suggesting they would all belong to Commons.
Just that they would all physically live in the same integrated
structure; but one that would still appear to
Just a word of caution about collecting all images in commons.
A while ago, at least, some local wikis had images with license
terms incompatible with commons and vice versa. I recall very simple
logos of companies, and several types of "fair use" derivatives.
If that is still so, we have an obsta
