 | The content of the Open patent page was merged into Patentleft on 26 March 2017, and it now redirects there. For the contribution history and old versions of the merged article, please see its history. |
This page needs a chunk of rewrite. In particular, the two paragraphs referencing Stallman read like personal (and emotive) opinion and contain several weasel words. Adding references (e.g. to "Critics") would be a good start. Thomask0 (talk) 15:20, 3 July 2011 (UTC)
Merge proposal
[edit]As explained here, I suggest merging the content of open patent to patentleft. Both seem to be about exactly the same concept, as far as I can see. --Edcolins (talk) 16:41, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
- I concur.--Nowa (talk) 16:46, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
- I was looking for a reference mentioning that "open patent" and "patentleft" are synonymous or at least closely related. If anyone is aware of such a reference or has search skills good enough to find one, this would very useful for the merge. --Edcolins (talk) 16:55, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
- I haven't found one yet, but there is an orphaned Open Patent Alliance--Nowa (talk) 00:48, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
- It's a blog, but worth a look. --Nowa (talk) 00:53, 27 November 2011 (UTC)
