David Price has added an Open Knowledge web button to debategraph.org. 
They have recently switched the default license to CC-BY-SA with the 
following notice:

David is wondering if its still fair and accurate to display the button. 
I think that from its context, its fairly clear that it applies to 
material available under the CC-BY-SA license, and not necessarily to 
material from prior to the switch which may 'note otherwise'.

What do others think?
