Info
titleCopyright waiver

To the extent possible under law, the yunity wiki contributors have waived all copyright and related or neighboring rights to the content of the yunity wiki.

...

Tell creators/photographers/designers to use only CC0-compatible material. Tell them that their work will also be cc0ed (yep, it’s a verb now)

Infonote

For the past content someone would have to check how much work it would be to ask everyone involved and if there is copyrighted or cc-by stuff in there and than see if it’s worth the effort! (might not be in most cases) for videos it can be a lot of effort: music, actors, etc.

Limitations

  • In many jurisdictions people have "the right at the own picture“ (means different things, but means you should probably ask if CC0 is cool for them)
  • Trademarks, logos, money, registered design, some architecture, emblems and stuff is protected and can probably not be cc0ed 
  • Wikimedia commons has a lot of information on those details (e.g. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Reusing_content_outside_Wikimedia)

...

In answer to the question 'How should yunity license non-code creations? (e.g. pictures, videos, articles, etc...)', 13 participants accepted the proposal 'CC0 for pictures and videos. The most permissive CC license available for the wiki.' on 2016-05-25. Advantages for the very permissive cc0 license (essentially public domain) include the ease for others (especially old media) to use our content, the increase in publicity this could bring, the message that we trust others and to manifest our stated interest in 'unconditional sharing'. In creating content for yunity, please do all you can to uphold this communal decision.
