- That's weird, because {{Copyright by Wikimedia}} has a link leading to meta:Wikimedia visual identity guidelines, and what I can understand of it is that logos owned by the Wikimedia Foundation are not free, but can be included within files without problems, provided that, as a copyrighted content + a trademark, they must not be modified + must be non-confusing and non-disparaging. What do you think about the following proposal?

As such, portions of this screenshot may be licensed under two separate licenses. The GPL and GFDL are not the same license; they are only connected through the Free Software Foundation, the creator of the licenses. |

Firefox 3.5+[edit]
The logo files in Firefox 3.5+ are under the Mozilla tri-license, though trademarked. --AVRS (talk) 11:19, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
MPL 2.0[edit]
According to [1] since some version, most of the Firefox source code is now under the Mozilla Public License 2.0. I’ve mentioned in Template:MTL/doc some issues that come with that. If the new Firefox is not under the Mozilla tri-license with MPL 1.1 anymore, a new FirefoxWiki template is needed for it. --AVRS (talk) 20:04, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
