Since when has that ever been a thing? With respect to licenses such as CC, we follow the same rules as anyone else. If the description here is accurate, it sounds to me like this harald bischoff should be blocked and possibly have his files deleted as incorrectly licensed (since he apparently doesn't accept the usual interpretation of CC BY), unless he publicly renounces the behavior of suing reusers. But I'll leave that to Commons and dewiki to work out. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
