Problematic license?

[edit]

The license of this photo and all other Dutch government member portraits from the same source seems problematic. Since the permission notice is only in Dutch, I added an unofficial translation so the problem can be clarified:

  1. The GFDL template stipulates that distribution is permitted under GFDL version 1.2 or later, but the permission notice from RVD only allows distribution under GFDL 1.2, and does not mention any later version.
  2. Worse than that, the permission notice seems to explicitly limit distribution permission to "Wikipedia" or "Wikimedia's website" itself, which is in contradiction with the GFDL.

It seems to me this licensing issue needs to be clarified. – McDutchie 10:14, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
