: I do not simply remove all of them. Those tags are there to categorise pages - and if a page is already categorised more precisely in a subcategory I remove them from the main category. I think it's more clear and logical this way. (Curious: Does this make sense to you?) --[[User talk:Speckmade|Speckmade]] 09:53, 19 July 2008 (EDT)

Hi Speckmade. I reverted your changes to the {{tl|Wiki}} template. For some reason, it was breaking the infobox in some articles, but not in others. I left a note about it on the talk page of the template. I like the idea, though. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 18:40, 14 October 2008 (EDT)

:I added a note about removing the "Wiki" from the license name in the Wiki License category notes. That was the primary reason why I edited the boilerplate template. It seemed a little counter-intuitive that the category name did not match the text you have to put in the infobox (I was confused by it intially), so I wanted to try to help other people by spelling it out. Hopefully, the note will serve that purpose. However, if you have a better way of doing it, please do. Thanks, [[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 16:03, 4 December 2008 (EST)

:: Yeah, nice to clarify this there. - But: I wouldn't get it from this "sentence" you added [http://wikiindex.org/index.php?title=Category:Wiki_YourWiki%27sLicense&diff=prev&oldid=60668 there] - did you maybe mess up the sentence? --[[User talk:Speckmade|Speckmade]] 07:59, 6 December 2008 (EST)

::Proprietary sounds good. And an explanation on the category page is even better. :-) --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 20:24, 30 March 2009 (EDT)

:::I see that when people add their wiki to the Wikiindex by going to the [[WikiIndex:Add a Wiki]] page and hitting the "Create a new wiki page" button, it now automatically creates a default boilerplate with a "Wiki License" line. Is the appropriate thing to do with such "Non-free wiki" is to edit that line in that wiki's Wikiindex page to "Site retains copyright", placing that wiki in the [[:Category:Wiki Site retains copyright]]? --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 22:43, 28 May 2009 (EDT)

::::I made that last category up after discussing it with... someone. Mark Dilley, perhaps? Feel free to change the name (or the paradigm) if you think it needs improvement. :-) --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 15:24, 29 May 2009 (EDT)
