IAMAT
Wondering if you are associated with IAMAT and if the organization would be willing to share some of their images under an open license? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:17, 16 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Yes, I am associated with IAMAT. What would sharing the images involve and under what type of open license? (For example, is it an open license under Wikipedia, a 3rd party, or creative commons license?) I'd be grateful if you could direct me to the relevant resources.

 * Sure it would be a creative commons license. The specific one being CC BY SA 3.0. Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 20:27, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

Open license files are uploaded to Wikimedia Commons (here's their welcome page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Welcome) from where they can be used on other Wikimedia projects, like Wikipedia. Here's their info on their licensing: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Licensing and here's their FAQ: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:FAQ

"The licenses must allow for commercial use and the creation of derivative works." ... "Wikimedia Commons only accepts free content, that is, images and other media files that are not subject to copyright restrictions which would prevent them being used by anyone, anytime, for any purpose." — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 20:32, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
 * The license is that used by the PLoS family of journals. Doc James  (talk · contribs · email) 20:37, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
