Oh, that's bad.

Improve Wikipedia article [[Open license]]
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_license>, which is redirected to
[[Open content]] <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_content>, can be
useful.

Curiously, even if I google 'open license wikipedia'
<http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=hp&biw=1280&bih=684&q=open+license+wikipedia>,
the article [[open licenses]] doesn't appear on the first page.
Splitting the article, if necessary (I think it is), can help.

Best,

Tom
