    '''Sharealike''' is a required reintegration clause of several [[parametric license]]s in [[Creative Commons]] and some monolithic ones like [[GFDL]].  It simply means that anyone improving a work must share the improved work with others who wish to use or improve it.  It is a key feature of the [[GPL]] too which applies this principle to [[source code]].  ''however see [[problems with free software and open source models]].''
    #REDIRECT [[share-alike]]
     
    The [[CC-by-sa]] license is quite close to the [[GFDL]] but is incompatible with it.  Things licensed under the CC regime are not part of the [[GFDL Corpus]].
     
    The '''CC-nc-sa''' license is used for [[GetWiki]] code and is the closest approximation yet to a [[Green Documentation License]]
     
    ''See [[w:Share_Alike]] for a more general introduction linked to other legal topics.''
     
    --------
    [[faction]]al comment:
     
    [[Reds]] prefer [[Free Software]] apparently because everything "has to be free".
     
    [[Golds]] prefer [[Open Source]] apparently so they can exploit the commons without obligation to give back.
     
    [[Trolls]] like sharing, but bite you on the leg if you try to tell them they have to share with you, even if you are doing harm to them.
