Hello,

After everything with the OGL, we've been trying very hard to keep this space as legitimate as we can. So far, so good, I think? However, what I could really use some help with is someone to go and collect the varying licenses from different publishers, and either make a nicely formatted set of markdown documents for each one, or add it to a section within the wiki.

I am also not against getting a GitHub pages setup specifically for this task as a "beginning."

Some publishers, even with so many signing onto the ORC, specifically prohibit their content from being shared even as far as looking like their trade dress (looking like their content).

Here are some I have already gathered recently:

Savage Worlds Publisher - Pinnacle Entertainment: https://peginc.com/licensing/

Cyberpunk/Witcher Publisher - R. Talsorian: https://rtalsoriangames.com/homebrew-content-policy/

The Dark Eye SRD -
The Dark Eye - Rules Wiki is free to transcribe. Everything else is not.

  • Furthermore, we can reference certain trade dresses, such as the game name, region names, etc.
  • We can create custom and original content for any system using these rules.
  • Published supplements indicated that are free to use are good, the rest is no good. Videos are not good period.
  • Illustrations are ok if obtained from the stock collection, and if obtained from public domain.
  • need to have their logo
  • Need to have their disclaimer. I'll probably throw the US fair use verbiage in there too since Github is owned by MS and HQ'd in America.
  • They suggest using their template
