Feedback has been overwhelmingly supportive so far, and it looks like the plans will be rolled out soon. | |||
The page [[bg3wiki:Copyrights]] has been updated with precise details of how the re-licensing works. Here's a summary: | |||
* New contributions from July 20 onward are CC BY-SA | |||
* Old contributions whose authors can't be reached / don't respond will stay up | |||
* Old contributions whose authors request removal will be replaced, but not immediately removed so the wiki isn't hurt | |||
The page [[bg3wiki:Privacy policy]] has received a minor update but will get a proper update before ads begin being displayed, since the company that serves the ads implements fairly standard user tracking for targeted advertisement. |
