Template talk:Copyright first-party

legalese clarification
as discussed in discord, I'm a little uncomfortable with the ambiguity of the template referring to content as being "from Satisfactory", with no distinction between data mined sources and runtime sources (i.e. screenshots of gameplay). screenshots of CSS-published videos (i.e. anything from the E3 trailer) probably falls comfortably under "from websites created and owned by Coffee Stain Studios".

Two proposals: SignpostMarv (talk) 20:24, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * 1) `This image  file comes from Satisfactory`
 * 2) `from Satisfactory or from websites  (data files or gameplay), or from websites `


 * Sounds good to me. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 22:36, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

mod-related legalese clarification
A screenshot of something that happens to include modded content in the background using assets/trademarks that aren't assigned to CSS might be an issue.

Proposing: "Unless specified otherwise, all All trademarks and registered trademarks present in the image are proprietary to Coffee Stain Studios."

third-party tool using first-party assets clarification
as discussed in discord, screenshots of the output of third-party tools that use first-party assets under fair use should probably be clarified with a separate template, i.e. Template:Copyright tool ?

proposed language would be identical to Template:Copyright game except for: "This image comes from a third party tool using assets from Satisfactory or from websites created and owned by Coffee Stain Studios, who hold the copyright of Satisfactory. Unless specified otherwise, all All trademarks and registered trademarks present in the image are proprietary to Coffee Stain Studios." SignpostMarv (talk) 20:24, 12 October 2020 (UTC)

Proposal: rename to Copyright First-Party
As discussed on discord, proposing this template be renamed & reworded to refer to more generally to first-party creations.

Additional proposed changes:


 * using assets assets or metadata
 * this is mostly to keep it in line with the Template talk:Copyright tool proposal.


 * from Satisfactory or from websites Satisfactory, from websites, or from any other content created and owned by Coffee Stain Studios
 * this is to cover all published materials (i.e. videos)

 * It sounds okay to me, if a tad pendantic, and it sounds like others in the Discord agree with the change. --Mr Pie 5 (talk) 02:11, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
