Any objections to renaming the article to "Licence of zlib/libpng"?

This would avoid needing the ugly and unnecessary "technical restrictions" note at the top.Gronky12:28, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

do it.208.103.185.7215:37, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I object (post facto). “zlib/libpng license” is the recognised name of the license, “ Licence of zlib/libpng” is not. -Ahruman16:35, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I couldn't find anywhere either the gzip or png projects used the term "zlib/libpng licence", so it seems to be a purely descriptive term (rather than a term of art). In which case either construction is fine. The new one just avoids a technical problem in Wikipedia.Gronky01:03, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The current title is awkward and not particularly efficient; in addition, most free software licence articles use the US spelling for the page title ("license"). For consistency and clarity the page should be moved to the alternative title.Chris Cunningham15:38, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe "zlib License" would a better title than "zlib license", since that is what thesite itself calls the license; in actual use, however, thecapitalization is varied. Either way, I agree that the grammatical restructuring of this article's title is less awkward, and much closer to the common name. "License" should be used because that is what the license iscalled.Gracenotes^T §15:51, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been renamed fromLicence of zlib/libpng tozlib License as the result of amove request. --Stemonitis17:03, 21 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

zlib without the /libpng suffix is simpler, more common, and more likely to be found in search.

Should theLatest version contain the latest version of Zlib where the license was last changed? Currently it tries to keep up with the current Zlib release version and not the license version. For some this might lead to confusion since articles likeGNU General Public License have itsLatest version set to the latest version of that license.Akira641z (talk)07:46, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
