Welcome to Wikipedia, Licorn! I am WBOSITG and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

Markup spec
[edit]Hi, not quite sure what you're asking - you'd like me to relicence my contribution to the wikitext markup spec? What licence do you have in mind? Stevage 07:38, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, I would. I mean any of Open Software license of your choice. For example GPL, LGPL or MIT/BSD. Licorn (talk) 12:51, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- But it's already licensed under GFDL? Hence my confusion. Stevage 03:10, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, it is licensed so by default. But GFDL is not a software license. It is a documentation license and it is not compatible with other widely used free software licenses. Wiki markup in fact is a program as it is translated by ANTLR to Java code. FSF itself recommends dual license large parts of code. Licorn (talk) 11:07, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reminder, licensed GPL3 now. Stevage 23:48, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
