== [[KB]] articles in the Wiki ==
Heyas Suezanne!<br>
I saw you article about [[Packet Loss]] and later realized that it was a copy of {{slkb|4237|this KB article}}. I know it's a stupid and annoying thing, but I wanted let you know that we're currently not allowed to copy and paste articles from the KB to the Wiki, due to copyright problems (see [http://vteamblog.com/2008/03/24/qa-support-portal-with-maurice-linden/ 1], [[User:Jeremy_Linden/Office_Hours/2008-8-15|2]], [http://vteamblog.com/2008/10/16/qa-documentation-team-the-knowledge-base-transcript-101608-11am-pdt/ 3]). The KB is under a different license than the Wiki and - even after a few Requests - this doesn't seem to change anytime soon. The last thing I heard about it is:
<div id="box">Jon Linden: technically speaking, the copyright that’s on the KB prohibits the wholesale copying of content from the KB to the wiki
Jon Linden: i’m not actually sure about just parts — especially parts that are just pure procedure<br>
Jon Linden: my personal take — and this shouldn’t be interpreted as policy — is that a procedure can be derived from simply using the viewer, and so copying a procedure from the KB should be allowed, since it could theoretically be arrived at independently thereof<br>
Jon Linden: but this is just my personal opinion<br>
Jon Linden: i can follow up on that with our legal team</div>(taken from [http://vteamblog.com/2008/10/16/qa-documentation-team-the-knowledge-base-transcript-101608-11am-pdt/ 3])
So I wanted to ask you to link to the KB, rather than copying from it. You can use [[Template:Slkb]]. I think I'll file a Jira for this copyright stuff... Will let you know when it's online.<br>Greetz, [[Image:Zai_signature.png|45px]] '''[[User:Zai Lynch|Lynch]]''' <sup><small>([[User talk:Zai Lynch|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Zai Lynch|contribs]])</small></sup> 13:57, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
