Default Re: How many people would volunteer for re-writing the manual?

If you post that the manual has an error and what the correct version is, that falls under fair use. If you post the entire manual, just to correct one small (if important) section, you are infringing.

If you're not making money, you will likely just face a take down notice, not actual financial damages, but I wouldn't rely too heavily on that.

And like many things about this game, while everyone seems to agree that there are some, when it comes down to pinpointing specifics it gets alittle bit fuzzy. So a generally agreed on glaring error could be used to open the door. But then comes the "formula vs feel" arguments, or the filling in things that were purposely left out, Not to mention adding in patched information in the same style.

Im not arguing for or against. Im just pointing out that the trouble might come from something that is not considered to be only a correction. What one side calls "the thing being modified is incorrect" might not be considered that way by the other side.
