If I were you, I would put the code into GitHub. It may seem like overkill, but it will make it much easier for others to find your scripts. It's free and there is a setting to generate a license file.
The wiki is under a CC-SA license, which is not a good match for code. You could explicitly state another license next to the code (copy and paste the license text onto the wiki page). MIT is compatible but I do not think GPL is. I think Apache is probably compatible but seems like overkill for scripts (it includes a patent license). (disclaimer: not legal advice, just my 2 cents) Best, Kathleen On Mon, Sep 18, 2017 at 10:15 PM SwiftFast <swiftf...@gmx.com> wrote: > I have a bot[1]. I'd like to publish its scripts.
