: Does anyone else know if we can just reproduce the content from wp? If we can, would it be better to state in each example used where it came from? Sould we just link to a possible wp example it if is good enough? (Would they have a suitable anchor by the wp example we need? I know, a lot of questions. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 20:47, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
 
:: I don't know. On the one hand, we may be playing fast and loose with the license. On the other hand, I note that Wikipedia has [[wp: Wikipedia:Licensing update|changed the license over time]]; they ''used to use'' the GFDL only until 2008–9. The gripping hand is that this page is made out of content removed in 2007; someone decided (years ago) that the WP page didn't need examples and removed them all. It's thus quite possible that the license that the examples were provided under and which they were provided under while they existed as actual current page content (instead of as ''historic'' content) is the GFDL, and as such we would be totally OK with this page (can you imagine any GNU license that didn't allow you to do what we're doing?) I don't feel like investigating too much, so let's assume that we're OK. (We link to the source which links to the history, and this page shows we're aware of the issues and reasonably respectful.) –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] ([[User talk:Dkf|talk]]) 22:57, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
