:::: For me, there remains one question.  If CC-BY-SA takes effect what does that mean for the songs I've shared on this Wiki?  I'm asking because I plan to register my stuff with the Copyright office once I get the money. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 14:21, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

::::: Well, the wiki ''could'' take the position that specific items such as your songs may be listed with a different license. It doesn't strictly have to be all the same. But assuming the smoother everything-the-same, any contributor retains complete copyright to their own work. You can register your songs and use them in any capacity, as you are the copyright holder. You are just licensing the content here under CC-BY-SA which means that at least the ''aspects'' of the songs that are here are then usable by people under the CC-BY-SA license. You can still separately license or use your own songs in any way you choose with anyone, you are not bound by the license yourself. But if others contribute non-trivially to your songs here, you would need to follow CC-BY-SA in your use of their contributions. The same principles apply right now with the current CC license anyway. --[[User:Wolftune|Wolftune]] ([[User talk:Wolftune|talk]]) 19:47, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
