Directory space license
The license [[Directory:MyWikiBiz|MyWikiBiz]] uses grants free access to our '''non-[[Help:Directory namespace|Directory]]''' content in the same sense as [[free software]] is licensed freely. This principle is known as '''[[copyleft]]'''. That is to say, MyWikiBiz '''ND''' content can be copied, modified, and redistributed ''so long as'' the new version grants the same freedoms to others and acknowledges the authors of the MyWikiBiz '''ND''' article used (a direct link back to the article satisfies our author credit requirement). MyWikiBiz '''ND''' articles therefore will remain free forever and can be used by anybody subject to certain restrictions, most of which serve to ensure that freedom.
