The Hugo Spoilers

The spoilers created by Kevin Hugo and Dylan O'Donnell are licensed under a BSD-ish license, which Dylan believes is compatible with this website. The template Template:DOD should be used on any page which is based on one of the xxxx-343.txt spoilers.

This page is based on a spoiler by Dylan O'Donnell. The original license is:

  1. The original contributors to any spoiler must continue to be credited.
  2. Any modifications to the spoiler must be acknowledged and credited.

Rodney

A few contributors to Rodney agreed to rerelease their contributions to this wiki under the GNU Free Documentation License. A full list is at Wikihack:Contributors to Rodney donating to the Wiki.

You will see this message on pages that have Rodney content:

Some or all of the information on this page was taken from https://alt.org/nethack/rodney-learn.php with the permission of the contributor. A list of people who gave such permission is at Contributors to Rodney donating to the Wiki.


NetHack Copyright

This wiki contains screen shots, source code, and quotes from the NetHack game itself.

The following copyright applies to NetHack:

NetHack, Copyright 1985-2003
By Stichting Mathematisch Centrum and M. Stephenson.
See license for details.

The license for NetHack is the NetHack General Public License.

Sometimes, you will see this message on source code and screenshot pages:

The NetHack General Public License applies to screenshots, source code and other content from NetHack.

This content was modified from the original NetHack source code distribution (by splitting up NetHack content between wiki pages, and possibly further editing). See the page history for a list of who changed it, and on what dates.

Note that unlike the other licenses above, the NetHack General Public License is not compatible with the GNU Free Documentation License. So you cannot add your own contributions to this wiki under the NetHack license, unless you also multilicense under the GNU FDL.
