Miraheze does not operate Services that are targeted at people under 13 years of age, and does not collect personally identifiable information. If you are a parent or guardian and become aware that your child has been using the Services, please let us know and we will remove your child’s information.
This is actually something that is being worked on by @grahamsh. We are trying to move to a service that will give us a VPS and allow us to control a MediaWiki instance there.
There was a legal reason we chose GPL reason for this (which I cannot remember) but switching to CC-BY-SA 3.0 (or 4.0) is not possible because the licenses are not compatible.
One, don't be so free with spending our nonexistent money. Our existing servers have, much of the time, been supported out-of-pocket by Jens and Michael.
Two, the wiki has no official connection with us. It's not clear we could host it without taking on the obligation to moderate it.
Yes, I believe so. It adds some text specifically about software provided as a service online, as opposed to software distributed for you to install on your computer.
Indeed. There are some hosting costs for Snap!Con itself, but some of that money will probably reimburse the out-of-pocket hosting expenses of Jens and Michael. I don't think there's a lot of extra money, but I suppose I should try to find out.
However, this compatibility is one-way only, meaning you can not release adaptations GPLv3-covered works under the terms of CC BY-SA 4.0.
As I understand it, we cannot change the license without taking every contributor's consent first some of whom may have come from other Miraheze wikis and might no longer be active.
