Hi again. Just wanted to alert you to the fact that although [http://www.wikiality.com Wikiality.com] now appears to be at least trying to comply with the terms of the GFDL, they're also [http://www.wikiality.com/Image:Wikiality_Logo2.jpg using Wikipedia's copyrighted logo] as part of their design for each page. I've dropped them a note (again) mentioning this and the fact they only link to the full text of the GFDL offsite rather than hosting in locally; however the I'm not sure I'm the right person to deal with issues concerning the logo. I thought I'd bring it to your attention and if you believe it's worth dealing with, you can pass it on the right person. Let me know if I can help. <span style="font-family:monospace"> -- (Lee)[[User:Lee_Bailey|Bailey]]<sup><font color="black">[[User talk:Lee_Bailey|(talk)]]</font></sup></span> 08:25, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
:Because of the modification to the logo and the nature of the site, the logo may be protected by parody and fair use. --[[User:Davidstrauss|Davidstrauss]] 15:16, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
::Really? I'm surprised to hear that would qualify as parody. I've heard that exceptions in copyright law for parody are rather liberal, but I would have presumed that since the original image file is clearly used in it'sits entirety, the use would be unacceptable -- the only 'modification' they've really done is superimposing another photo over it. But I don't really know much about that area of the law -- regardless, thanks for checking it out. <span style="font-family:monospace"> -- (Lee)[[User:Lee_Bailey|Bailey]]<sup><font color="black">[[User talk:Lee_Bailey|(talk)]]</font></sup></span> 21:30, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
