All my //original content// on this website, unless where otherwise specified, is licensed under [[CC BY-SA 4.0|Creative Commons/BY-SA 4.0:en]].
It is a [[free culture]] license that promotes the benefits of making information available for anyone to learn from and build upon. However, be sure to know its terms before doing anything other than just consuming the site!
You can easily recognize which of the directly hosted (entirely contained in a //tiddler// itself, like text, string-encoded files, or standalone files in the file system) content is my original creation: it's anything that features no indication of source or license.
Unless I forget to do so in specific instances, I always credit the source and/or specify the original license for anything upon which I don't hold 100% of the rights (even public domain content) and is a straight copy. I may not do so if the content in question is not directly copied //into// my site, but instead embedded from a Web space which is the property of another entity - in which case, a clickable link directing to the source will be present; if not, you can click the pencil-shaped (edit) button to read the source code for a specific //tiddler//, to discover possible external embed URLs.
The above is valid for all //content tiddlers// (those whose name does not start with `$:/`) and all //system tiddlers// created by me (not part of standard [[TiddlyWiki|TiddlyWiki]] or any of my [[installed plugins|$:/core/ui/ControlPanel/Plugins]]).
//Non-original system tiddlers// which I never touched, obviously fall under their own license; but, for simplicity of operations, as well as to avoid accidentally claiming ownership on code not written by me, I hereby explicitly give away my copyright for //non-original system tiddlers// that I modified from their original state. This means you can consider those as always falling under their original license, even if I touched them; From another point of view, you can effectively consider any //diff// generated between the original version of a //system tiddler// and my modified version of the same file as falling under public domain.
