Licenses on Tradexicon.org

All textual content of Tradexicon.org is released under one of two licenses.

  • The public domain help pages are, as the name implies, released into the public domain (PD). Read more about Public Domain here: [1]
  • All other pages are released under the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL)

Both licenses allow anyone to re-use the content in any way they choose. This includes charging money for access to the content, distributing it wherever and however they like, and modifying it in any way they see fit. The main differences between the two licenses are:

  • If you alter GFDL content, your changes must also be released under the GFDL.
  • Any use of GFDL content must include full credits of people who have contributed to it.

Note: that this is a very basic comparison to highlight the main points. There are other differences that have not been mentioned here. Please seek proper legal advice if you are in any doubt about what you are and are not allowed to do with material released under either license.
