The Jurisdiction Database is a dynamic resource containing information for Affiliates, scholars and others interested in CC's international community.

Research

The Database contains the full text of the Unported and the jurisdiction-specific 3.0 licenses, which you can query by a range of variables. The license texts have been structured according to tags or keywords. Query one or more ported licenses (and Unported) for tagged license sections. Visit the Jurisdiction Database Research page for more information on using the data contained in this database.

Jurisdictions

Contributing to the Database

The Jurisdiction Database contains information on the Unported license and each Creative Commons affiliate jurisdiction (e.g. Germany, Estonia).

On these pages you have the opportunity to add or edit data about the jurisdiction, or data about the jurisdictions 3.0 license porting process.

On each page, you can choose to edit the page directly as with a normal wiki page or edit via the "edit with form" link at the top of the page. This form will allow you to input information into labeled boxes and is suggested at least for edits to the sidebar.

The structure of pages follows this schema: <Jurisdiction>/3.0/<License>
