mp's Introduction

mp

The Platform Toolkit is a material to guide content sharing platforms when adding the option of CC licensing. These aren't hard-set requirements, but suggestions on how to make the implementation smooth for users and platform alike. The process towards building it was described in a series of blog posts on the CC Open Source blog.

Getting started

The toolkit is placed in the docs/ folder along with a frozen copy of the Vocabulary stylesheets. The site is predominately self-contained. You should be able to see nearly accurate rendering by cloning this repository and opening docs/index.html in your browser.

Code of conduct

CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md:

The Creative Commons team is committed to fostering a welcoming community. This project and all other Creative Commons open source projects are governed by our Code of Conduct. Please report unacceptable behavior to [email protected] per our reporting guidelines.

Contributing

See CONTRIBUTING.md.

Hosting and Deployment

Within both the Creative Commons production and staging environments, the docs/ directory is served by the NGINX web server. The Creative Commons production and staging environments are managed using SaltStack (see the nginx.misc state for specifics). SaltStack ensures the repository clone is at the most recent version for the configured branch when the state is applied.

mp's Issues

nix categories on search

I would do same categories on upload as search, so at ?action=search

Nix FC category and add CC licenses

Also, does "Any" include ARR copyright?

re: other considerations for TOS

"the direct license to the platform is in conflict with the CC license" - not how i read it. if the license is for the platform provider itself (which i think it normally is) it just sits alongside the CC license. the problem is if they introduce something in the TOS that then affects how their users of the service can leverage the CC licensed content in a way that is more restrictive than what the license says--that's a problem and you address it below.

License Explanation Panel

@mattl @janeatcc I'm worried that the panel under the license choosers that lists all the licenses and highlights the one the user currently selected takes up too much space/is too intrusive as an example. Should we roll this information into the drop-down menu, show just the information for the currently chosen license, or is the current behaviour good?

Redesign Platform Toolkit page

This is an Outreachy contribution task. Multiple people may complete this task, it will not be closed until the Outreachy winter 2019 contribution period ends.


Redesign the current version of CC’s platform toolkit webpage so that it looks clean and contemporary. Submit it as a pull request to this repository.

Usage of CC Vocabulary is recommended but not required.

nix categories on upload

at ?action=new

I would get rid of FC categories and keep or add

Public Domain
CC licenses
Default Copyright

improve dropdown menu

use to have full copyright (at the bottom) then work back up from BY-NC-ND to 0 with groups for public domain and free culture licenses.

Static use of Creative Commons materials

I received a question from a startup using CC licensed photos on their website. They are not a content provider/platform but a tourism agency for a particular region.

Can we add instructions on how to add static images to your webstite. Like how to attribute a CC BY image that is used in the footer or header of your website.

I recommended to make a separate page with a description an the license

The image in the footer is created by <name> and licensed under a <license name and link>

Can we add something like this to this project for platforms?

Change download button icon

There's a glyph for download. The current one is dropdown menu. I was hoping you were going to offer me an ASCII art rendering of a horse, and now I'm sad.

Metadata for display section could use some additions for multiple media files/per page

You could add additional html per attribution statement to connect the attribution to a particular media file. This is useful for search engines and other machine readers, as they cannot determine which file is described by the RDFa. The CCrel primer talks about adding a div with an about tag.

<a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/"><img alt="Creative Commons License" style="border-width:0" src="https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/3.0/88x31.png" /></a><span xmlns:dct="http://purl.org/dc/terms/" property="dct:title">Lawrence Lessig at the CC Global Summit 2015</span><a xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#" href="https://vimeo.com/143427866" property="cc:attributionName" rel="cc:attributionURL">Creative Commons</a>

to something like:

<div about="<LINK TO MEDIAFILE>">
    <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/" rel="license"><img alt="Creative Commons License" src="https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by/3.0/88x31.png" style="border-width:0"></a><span>Lawrence Lessig at the CC Global Summit2015</span><a href="https://vimeo.com/143427866" rel="cc:attributionURL">Creative Commons</a>
</div>
