Wiki questions for GW

[Forencith]

The Seventh Veil is making a unofficial in-community wiki which will be our "library". It is technically public, but we have not yet made any links to it. Eventually we do hope to allow others to use it. Currently we are only adding official PF lore and first person character experiences from P&PPF games. We will be adding information about PFO (lore and mechanics) as it becomes available.

May we quote Dev/Blog posts?

If so, how would you like us to cite them? Would a short "Author, Date" citation as a hyperlink to the original work?

Do you have any other special requirements for us?

[Ryan Dancey]

No opinion

[Nihimon]

Our main concern is that someone might accidentally, or at least without our immediate knowledge, post something or link to something that is under copyright. Obviously, we want to maintain a good relationship with Paizo and Goblinworks.

[Vic Wertz]

Until Goblinworks has their own Community Use Policy, just pretend that Paizo's Community Use Policy extends to Goblinworks (and that references to Paizo blogs equate to Goblinworks blogs).

[Forencith]

Brilliant...and already our default MO. Thanks Vic!

So ....

Quote:

You may descriptively reference trademarks, proper names (characters, deities, artifacts, places, etc.), locations and characters from products listed in Section 1 of our Community Use Approved Product List at paizo.com/communityuse/products, provided it is clear that these are our marks.

and furthermore...

Quote:

Community Use Approved Product List - Section 1...

///
Pathfinder Adventure Path #31: Stolen Land (Kingmaker 1 of 6) (PFRPG)

Pathfinder Adventure Path #32: Rivers Run Red (Kingmaker 2 of 6) (PFRPG)

Pathfinder Adventure Path #33: The Varnhold Vanishing (Kingmaker 3 of 6) (PFRPG)

Pathfinder Adventure Path #34: Blood for Blood (Kingmaker 4 of 6) (PFRPG)

Pathfinder Adventure Path #36: Sound of a Thousand Screams (Kingmaker 6 of 6) (PFRPG)

Means as long as we clearly and appropriately indicate which items are trademarked we are good to go, so long as the integrity of the policy isn't compromised and our use of it does not degrade the IPs quality.

Would you say that is a fairly accurate statement?

[Mark Moreland]

I'd suggest checking out PathfinderWiki to see how it's done on their site. In this case, a simple disclaimer (provided by Paizo as part of the CUP) appears at the bottom of each page. As long as you do that, you're covered to use names of places, people, deities, events, items, etc. from Golarion without needing to call each and every one of them out as being owned by Paizo.
