I'll be away for a while so I give my approval to relicense my contributions under CC0 now. Sorry for not using the forum, it seems to be down atm. --Love4boobies 13:20, 17 August 2011 (UTC)

Will do, noted - Combuster 09:40, 18 August 2011 (UTC)

Markup somewhat unclear

I am still a bit confused as to what the different types of markup actually mean.

* a (-) behind a user means he didn't make any Wiki contributions.
* a (m) behind a user means he only made minor contributions.
* a "signed off" means a user declared his past contributions to be under CC0.

What does a struck-out user *name* mean? -- Solar 12:38, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Any struck out user simply means that that any licensing issues with his contributions has been dealt with - reason and other background information usually following the name. It makes the users in need of some (additional) nagging stand out in the list. - Combuster 18:22, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Suggestion:

Why not ask chase to add an "implicit compliance" clause to the registration form for the forum? Or on the area where you add yourself to the wiki-editors group. Something like, "By adding yourself to this group, you agree that all of your future submissions will conform to the chosen license of the wiki, subject to the discretion of the administration."

^ Should help ease your work somewhat :) -- gravaera 2:32, 16 February 2012 (GMT-5)

If you read the text around the "Save page" button, we got that part covered. This mess is only about people who predated this change. - Combuster 23:57, 16 February 2012 (CST)
