All material from the game is copyrighted by Sigil and we have a general disclaimer for game content, which covers text/screenshots, or should. What would you suggest as a way to mark those passages in an unobtrusive way? Small statement below stating the passage is from in-game? |
One site I saw put game text in quotes to at least hint that it wasn't original text. I don't know what the right answer is; however, spheres needs to establish a policy for handling game text and pictures that is clear to all contributors and editors (not that I think that Sigil will begrudge us the quotes, its just good practice).
The problem with the disclaimer is that it doesn't actually identify what portions of the site contain copywrite material.
Pirotess needs to make sure we aren't in violation of the Wiki software licencing agreement as well.
