Voting for Wikipedia’s license

I love Wikipedia. They are trying to get Wikipedia moved from the Free Documentation License, to the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike license (commonly referred to as CC BY-SA). I’m a big fan of the Creative Commons, so naturally, I think this is an important item to vote on.

To qualify, you need to have made 25 edits or more, prior to March 15 2009. The vote itself ends May 3 2009, so don’t procrastinate. If you’re unsure, read the licensing Q&A. But I suggest you vote yes, and let the content be CC BY-SA.
