Think of this as the Copyright Compliant Lyric and Poetry Hall of Fame. The Everything2 writers took the time to bring some of their work out of the shadows and into the realm of copyright approval, according to the current US laws. There are four separate groupings:

  • Writeups that maintain less than 250 words of quoted materials and more than 2/3rds of the writeup is original material by the noder. These are the real Hall of Fame nodes.
  • Writeups that exceed 250 words of quoted materials and have either been granted permission to repost by the copyright owner or permission has been requested (and the request was CC'd to the Content_Salvage account).
  • Writeups that have public domain material, and therefore are exempt from the above rules.

If you have an addition for this list, please /msg the user named Content_Salvage.
