Wikipedia has a page on how they handle Fair Use on their wiki.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Fair_use I believe that they also offer their content under a (different) Creative Commons license, though obviously their situation is different, so this is posted only to help people start thinking about these issues.

If someone embeds something in their wiki using the widget command, does the content of that widget immediately fall under the Creative Commons license?
For example, if I embed a video on my website and someone sees it, could they reuse it, claiming that they have the right to do so under the Creative Commons license that protects the entire site? It would make sense to me that the Creative Commons license would cover the reference to the video that was hosted elsewhere but not the video itself. Interpreted any other way, this could lead to all sorts of legal troubles. Another scenario. Suppose I own the copyright for a photograph that I want to use on my wiki but don't want to license the photo out under the Creative Commons license. Can I embed the photo as a widget on my wiki using an IFRAME without releasing the photo into the Creative Commons? Some guidance from Wetpaint on this would be very helpful.

Hi.
I would like to add a CC license badge to my site--the same one Wetpaint Mandates: Creative Commons' Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 License (although I think it is 3.0 now) but Wetpaint does not recognize the badge embed code. Can you give some guidance on how to embed the widget? Cheers, Bill T.

I just went on Alabasters' site and her homepage, wolf pack layouts, just about EVERYTHING is MINE! I created my site in what June or July yet- this site was created August 4 and it's almost an exact copy of mine! They are doing both wolves and cats (same a mine- even though a lot of people are doing that I get that) but the order of the pages are similar, the color coding is exactly alike- JUST LOOK AT THE HOMEPAGE. The layouts of the Wolf packs are the same too! On the homepage they have pics for the admins and such as an poem under the main pic just ;ike I do. They have the tables, joining information, EVRYTHING that I have! Look for yourself and plz give me advice on what I should do...

I don't know what to do
I found a website that COMPLETELY copied http://mileycyruslovers.wetpaint.com , he also copied MY work, but I successfully removed some of it. The website is http://hannahmontanaloverss.wetpaint.com I tried telling the owner, but he's doing nothing about it. He said nobody cares about it anyway. I'm not sure what to do.

This site's homepage has a lot of copyrighted material on it, including pictures that were made by a user on WCC2 named Calere who made the pictures for WCC2 only. Just thought I should warn you guys about it.

Hi there :D Could you please go to this site:
www.bloodyrosesv2.wetpaint.com And ask that they kindly remove the image of Mangowhisker from Otterfoot's profile, as well as the name (the name and image are stolen, and were SPECIFICLY made for one of our (lunastar.wetpaint.com) admins use ONLY) I know it seems a bit complex and trust me, I'd do it myself but for some reason whenever I try to Join, I always get "Oops! we have found a bug, please try again later or e-mail someone about this problem!" T-T So could you? :3

Hello Wetpaint team,
I am an artist and have had a piece of artwork I have drawn reposted on this site with someone claimingthey have created it. I did NOT give this user permission, and under your creative commons license, I do not authorize my artwork to be allowed on this site as it could potentially harm my job as an illustrator. Please remove the last image on this page under "my artwork"..which is so clearly not his as it contains many different signature and copyright notices (the black wolf with the blue flame) as I do not want this image on a site that legally permits users to take it and redistribute it at will when it was taken from a site that does not. http://okcadvertisehere.wetpaint.com/account/Randy_Ortan?t=anon Thank you

This site here: http://animalsofthelands.wetpaint.com/?t=anon has used a piece of artwork I commissioned and paid for without my permission. I was not aware that it had been used until someone kindly sent me a message about it over on DeviantArt. As far as I can tell though, that site is pretty inactivity and I can't seem to find any links or emails to contact whomever created the site to ask them to take down that picture.
http://pearleden.deviantart.com/art/Legendary-Wolves-86909406 <--- that's the link to the original picture that I commissioned PearlEden to draw for me over on DeviantArt (Vamprincess-Noa is my account over there). I'm really not sure who to contact or what to do, I just want that picture taken off that website as soon as possible because, as I've stated, I paid for it to be drawn and I never gave my permission for whomever owns that site to use it.

FQ(Flarestar's Quest) has stolen copyright from Lunastar's Quest. They have stolen pictures ect. from Luna without permisson. Even though I'm only a registered user on LQ, i want to do everything i can to help.
Luna gets on every now and then, but when we started discuissing this, Luna was never on. We also started talking about it in the Chats because Mossy brought it up. We have one of those fancy chats and so Mossy put the link on there so others could see that they have commited theft. Evtually Luna will see it, but we don't know when that'll happen. Others have yelled and screamed and made FQ's creator feel bad. I didn't do this, I talked normally with her. She hasn't replied yet, but I want to know what we can do to stop them. Should we contact someone else other than the creator? Help LQ and stop this theft! ~Cat |

Dear wetpaint team,
My friend Star has had all of her site taken by Mystic Wolf warriors! User Cloverheart stole every single idea she had! and if you look in the history you will find that Cloverheart had tried to steel and make her site just like Starglazes! For example- http://mysticwolfwarriors.wetpaint.com/ That is Cloverheart's site^ http://wolfwarriors.wetpaint.com/ This is StarGlaze's^ If you look on all the pages you will find that they deliberately used StarGlaze and used all her ideas and text! I'm asking you please take mystic wolf warriors and Cloverheart off Wetpaint! We don't need Thieves and liars!!! Thank you, bye

My friend and I were looking for Advertising sites, when we click on this one site called http://ideasgrande.wetpaint.com. There was a page called hihi, a girl threaten us that she would kill us. I don't believe this, but my friend does. She was angry and a little scared. We wanted to report her, but we couldn't. She was anoymus. We need your help, wetpaint.
