I am building a wiki community and wondering what licence I should choose. Here is what I want to allow people to do :

??As long as you provide proper attribution:
- you are allowed to copy and distribute any article from this wiki to
anybody and for any purpose (incl. commercial);
- you are allowed to modify any article on the wiki, and by doing this
you agree to place your modifications under these terms.

If for non profit purpose, and still as long as you provide proper attribution:
- you still can of course copy and distribute any article from the wiki
- you can publish derivative works under any licence you wish to

If you have commercial purpose, you can only publish derivative work
under the same licence as this one.??

I also run a wiki with a CC-license:

* - <HTTP://PeacefulBeginnings.Org/> - Peaceful Beginnings: The First Intactivistic Wiki On Earth

What you want, you cannot have. If you do not care about whether people import material into your wiki, I would choose either CC-BY-SA or CC-BY-NC-SA. On my wiki, I wanted people to import material under other licenses, so I chose CC-BY. Material under CC-BY can integrate with any other CC-License except CC-BY-ND and the evil abomination CC- BY-NC-ND. Because of this, Rosemary Romberg can put her book, "Circumcision: The Painful Dilemma" licensed CC-BY-NC-SA on the wiki. If you do this, you must clearly mark material imported under other licenses for those wishing to export material from the wiki.
