A bot has tagged this as a possible copright violation. This content has been used for years in several related list articles. It was copied here for consistency and ease of updating (the URL used in most, if not all, of the articles had gone stale). I have no expertise in copyvio issues, but I can't imagine this is not fair use (assuming that term applies), since we need the precise definitions in our articles. - dcljr ( talk) 20:29, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Restored. This is ridiculous. It would be fair use even if it were under normal copyright. We can't very well discuss where languages fit in the UNESCO classification without explaining the UNESCO classification, and UNESCO specifically allows it to be copied with attribution. — kwami ( talk) 05:23, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
To whom it may concern: I have 2 issues to discuss: 1) Back in 2012 I emailed UNESCO a list of potential errors in the Atlas of Endangered languages. I stopped looking at this issue for a few years, but now have a new list of potential errors. Who, if anyone, could/should I send those to? It's possible that I may find more later as well. 2) May Wikipedia have permission to reproduce the contents of the LIMITED data set, plus the definitions of the "degrees of vitality" in lists of endangered languages, in tabular format? Please be advised that although of course Wikipedia is not a business, its licensing permits other individuals to copy its content for business purposes (licence includes commercial re-use). For an example of the sort of table(s) I am referring to, see: /info/en/?search=List_of_endangered_languages_in_Asia For the Wikipedia debate about potential UNESCO/Atlas copyright violations, see: /info/en/?search=Talk:Lists_of_endangered_languages/UNESCO_definitions

Dear [name],
Thank you for your interest in the UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger.
We have received your comment submitted on 26/04/2015, requesting a permission to reproduce the contents of the limited dataset and definitions of the "degrees of vitality" of the Atlas.
After a thorough consultation with UNESCO’s legal service, we are pleased to let you know that the limited dataset and the definition of the ”degrees of vitality” are under UNESCO’s Open Access Policy< http://en.unesco.org/open-access/>.
Please note that the use of the limited dataset and the information related to the Interactive Atlas of the World's Languages in Danger is bound to the Terms of Use. In that connection, it is requested to indicate the source references as follows:
Moseley, Christopher (ed.). 2010. Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger, 3rd edn. Paris, UNESCO Publishing. Online version: http://www.unesco.org/languages-atlas/en/atlasmap.html
Also note that UNESCO will take no responsibility for the update of such reproduction, nor the coherence with the data modifications caused by daily updates of the Interactive Atlas.
Best regards, Editorial team UNESCO Atlas of the World’s Languages in Danger
