Latest comment: 3 days ago by AuroraANovaUma in topic Template-protected edit request on 3 June 2024

Can I find a version of this that does not use any templates and only uses wiki text? Alphaslucas talk 09:47, 10 June 2014 (UTC)Reply

What does the exact HTML look like that needs to be used in order to add the tag, i.e. <, > / ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AdelaideEldridge (talkcontribs) 05:48, 19 October 2014 (UTC)Reply

– Reason: The name of the license is "CC0 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0) Public Domain Dedication".[1]

The following pages currently redirect to Template:Cc-zero.

I propose making them all redirect to Template:CC0

I further propose creating the following redirects:

  • Support - I don't see a reason why not. Is there some technical reason why lots of old templates have such clunky names? DaßWölf 19:00, 23 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • Support – Creative Commons refer to the license as "CC0", not "CC-0" or "CC-Zero". Jean (t·c) 17:36, 28 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

Only use on file pages? edit

With data now being hosted on Wikipedia, this template should be edited to remove/alter the notice to only use on file pages, right? ɱ (talk) 03:35, 4 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Please change <span class="licensetpl_link_req" style="display:none;">true</span> to <span class="licensetpl_link_req" style="display:none;">false</span>, identifying the license is not required when reusing a CC0 image. Dylsss(talk contribs) 01:47, 16 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't the "his or her" part just say "their"? AuroraANovaUma ^-^ (talk) 16:48, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think "his or her" is perfectly correct in this context — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 16:56, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
That text does not live in this template. See MediaWiki talk:Wm-license-cc-zero-explanation, where the original "their" was changed to "his or her". "Their" would be more inclusive of non-binary people and non-individual creators such as organizations and groups, so it would probably be a useful change. – Jonesey95 (talk) 19:36, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
And not only that but the same template in Commons also just uses their instead of his or her. AuroraANovaUma ^-^ (talk) 22:02, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
