This happened to me with Wikipedia as well – a picture I took myself they tried 
to 
say I was copyright infringing. Sigh.

 

Alternative suggestion here – use Everipedia! ☺ It’s based on Blockchain and 
super cool.

 

Cheers,

Chris

Roy,

 

I spoken with the editor concerned [1] and it should be possible for you

to recreate the Apache Celix page and any other pages that that editor

removed.

 

For future reference in case it helps you or others:

 

The content of all of our web sites is licensed under the Apache

License, version 2 unless explicitly stated otherwise. I can't think of

any examples of alternative licencing off the top of my head but there

might be a few instances somewhere.

 

The ALv2 permits re-use (see sections 2 and 4 in particular).

 

While section 6 of the ALv2 may appear to prevent the use of logos, it

does not prevent nominative use [2] and our policy explicitly calls out

using the logo in an article to refer to the project as being OK [3].

 

HTH,

 

Mark

Hi,

I also started with this task. What should one do to keep the pages to

exist?

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Celix

* https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Apache_Celix.png

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apache_Zeppelin

* https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Apache_Zeppelin.png

And this is going on for all the pages.

The response: Looking at the license, material created using the software

is released under license. But the license does not appear to extend to

their webpages, logos, and so on. Asking for pages to be created is not the

same thing as releasing copyright material under a compatible license.

Even when using the main project sentence which explains the project which

is stored in the official README in the GitHub repository mirror a

complaint is filed:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apache_Zeppelin

What is probably the best way to resolve this, as the information put on

Wikipedia should match the Apache TLP its website.

What I would recommend as a starting point is to go to the Apache Software

Foundation wikipedia page, and stub in links to all of the projects that

are listed at projects.apache.org
