Description Wseltzer 2012-10-07 16:17:04 UTC
Should this page exist or the link be changed to an internal link: 

http://docs.webplatform.org/w/index.php?title=WPD:Porting_MDN_Content&action=edit&redlink=1

linked from http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:External_Attribution

cc'ing Janet - she is probably the best person to comment on/deal with this.

Haven't we got something written to cover this already - do we just need to link it up to the correct place? Or if not, could you write a quick piece about it?

Seems to me like the reference to:

http://docs.webplatform.org/w/index.php?title=WPD:Porting_MDN_Content&action=edit&redlink=1

could link to our copyright page:

http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/WPD:Copyright

instead of some page about porting MDN content.

I sent an email to Janet to confirm.
Comment 3 Janet Swisher 2012-11-29 20:39:38 UTC
Originally, there was an idea to enable MDN contributors to indicate that their MDN content could be used under WPD's terms, which would free it from needing to be flagged as MDN/CC-BY-SA. The stubbed document was going to describe that process.

It looks like that's going to be a long-term project to implement. So Julee's solution seems best until such time as that happens.
Comment 4 JuleeAtAdobe 2012-11-29 21:00:03 UTC
Replaced WPD:Porting_MDN_Content with WPD:Copyright.

If at any point there is a way to designate MDN content as being under WPD's terms, we can create the WPD:Porting_MDN_Content page.
