![]() | On 13 July 2024, it was proposed that this page be moved from Template:GPL-3 to Template:GPL-3+. The result of the discussion was moved. |
The result of the move request was: moved. ( closed by non-admin page mover) Safari Scribe Edits! Talk! 15:48, 20 July 2024 (UTC)
Template:GPL-3 → Template:GPL-3+ – This is due to a merger on Commons. c:Template:GPLv3 is getting deprecated and redirected to c:Template:GPLv3 only in due course, while c:Template:GPLv3+ will take on the role of GPLv3. You can read about this merger at c:Template talk:GPLv3. Naturally, c:Template:GPL-3 will also be re-redirected to GPLv3 only soon, which creates a problem. If a file with this template is moved with a tool like mtc-cli after GPL-3 is redirected to GPLv3 only, then we have effectively got a licensing change (GPLv3 or later -> GPLv3 only). Therefore, it is structurally necessary to move this template to GPL-3+.
Furthermore, the SPDX (which is like a database of licenses) to identify GPLv3 only is actually GPL-3.0, so it makes little sense to keep this template here.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO CLOSERS if this discussion is closed as move, it needs to occur without redirect and all transclusions and links to this template need to be replaced. This is due to the above problems. I can do this if you want.
