Wikimedia Commons copyright management
In the second feasibility study of the CommonsDB project the Institute for Information Law in Amsterdam has summarized the process Wikimedia Commons uses for copyright management. It is possibly the most comprehensive description of that process, collecting information from numerous policies and pages on Commons, and might be useful if someone would like an easy but thorough explanation. It has also been parallel published onwiki to enable even further improvement by the community.
