Not being very high on copyright, even within Wikipedia, are the pictures and their copyright notice canon? --Anders Törlind

Not quite sure what you mean, I thought the copyright statement was clear, it belongs to King John's Morris.


The idea is, if someone uploads a picture to Wikipedia, it's regarded as released under a GNU Free Documentation License. In other words, from a legal point of view, it seems there's no such thing as simply giving Wikipedia permission to use the photograph, since Wikipedia's contents are freely distributable and modifiable (under the constraints of the GNU FDL). Ideally, there should be a notice on the King John's Morris page to the effect that the photographs were freely distributable according to the GNU FDL. --LMS
OK, I'll remove the photographs for the time being and get them loaded into the wikipedia domain in the approved manner. Bob Waller
