 Various forms of the Creative Commons License are often used. The most common conditions that granting authors place on Creative Commons-licensed work include the following conditions, or combinations thereof:
-# Attribution: users of the work must attribute it properly to the author.
+# Attribution: users must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use. (For example, it may be reasonable to satisfy the conditions by providing a URL or hyperlink to a resource that includes the required information.)
-# Non-commercial: No one may use a work licensed under this condition for commercial purposes without the author's permission.
+# Share-Alike:  If you remix, transform, or build upon the material, you must distribute your contributions under the same license as the original.
-# Share-Alike: Anyone who transforms the work must release the work so transformed to others under the same or similar license terms.
+# Adapt — remix, transform, and build upon the material for any purpose, even commercially.
-# No derivatives: No one may transform the work, or derive another work from it, without the express written permission of the author.
+# The licensor cannot revoke these freedoms as long as you follow the license terms.

 '''CC-BY-SA''' is a license of more than 3,100 words that exists in several different versions (e.g., "3.0").  It was adopted by Wikipedia in 2009 to replace the GFDL, the even more complicated license that Wikipedia was previously using.
-In the time it takes you to figure out what this Wikipedia-preferred license means, you probably could have found something better in the [[public domain]].
