halo all

just got something worth mentioning via discussing the issue with my pals

A wikipedian who's a transports-issue-holic mentioned that the font that Mr Fung use in his image 

is actually the one MTR uses in their station

as an All right reserved font, this may be a tort to MTR's  copyright.....

so many issues to be clarified if Mr Fung really wanna launch something against Citybank I wonder

This can probably be a good opportunity for public education. I will, and think all CCHK members should, give this Xavier all our support. That is, of course, if there is enough evidence to establish the case and we have good confidence that we can nail down City Bank.

Can some members of our legal team give some advice? I'd also like to hear from Rebecca, Charles, Pindar and everyone.

To: wikimedia.hong.kong AT gmail.com


香港維基媒體協會負責人台鑒：

本人為中文維基百科的用戶（名字：Xavier114fch）。早前發現本人創作的「港鐵未來路線圖」（http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:FutureMTRNetworkAfterMerger.png）被花旗銀行（香港）用以宣傳其八達通信用卡之廣告上。由於本人使用了GFDL及CC的版權條款發佈上述圖片，而該廣告並沒有依從條款的內容發佈，屬侵犯版權之行為。故電郵　貴會，望能得到協助處理是次事件。

本人經翻查後，發現該廣告曾於《都市日報》、《頭條日報》及《AM730》（http://www.am730.com.hk/old_issue/issue/2008/200812/20081204/default1.html?startpage=）上刊載過，廣告上的路線圖只顯示本人創作圖片之中心部分，並把所有站名去除並冠以「免費」字樣，路線圖上陸地部份被換成灰色，並在圖的左上角加上「交通收費一覽」的字樣。顯然該廣告圖片是以本人的創作修改，但沒有跟從共享創意（Creative Commons）「姓名標示-相同方式分享」（CC-by-sa）授權條款（http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.zh_TW），標示本人的名字及以相容的授權條款發佈，是侵犯了本人的版權。

素聞　貴會代表香港的維基人，並以推動自由創作為宗旨。本人希望得到　貴會的協助，以便向花旗銀行一方作出交涉，並以此機會正視抄襲維基百科∕以自由版權發佈內容之不良風氣。望能得到　貴會回覆。如　貴會欲和本人聯絡，請以電郵（xavier114fch AT gmail.com）、維基用戶頁（User:Xavier114fch）或電話（6028 9641，晚六時後）通知。

謹祝
　　台安

Halo all

As my fellow Chapter broad member discovered

a Local Chinese wikipedian had stated on his user page, claiming that his CC-licensed MTR maps being trotted by Citibank's Advertisements

More details can be found on this page on zh.wikipedia

http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Xavier114fch/%E4%BB%A5CC%E6%A2%9D%E6%AC%BE%E7%99%BC%E4%BD%88%E7%9A%84%E8%B7%AF%E7%B7%9A%E5%9C%96%E8%A2%AB%E5%BB%A3%E5%91%8A%E6%8C%AA%E7%94%A8

On the page, the user stated that he had sent e-mails to WMHK & CCHK. We had not receive such e-mail at the moment, and I wonder if his mail had reached CCHK.

As the user is not a registered member of our chapter, so most of our broad member intend to handle this matter personally at this moment, unless this user identify himself via register as a chapter member.

I wonder if any of you had any idea to help him in this stage
