How do I search Alleypedia?

What license does Alleypedia use for contents?

The text of each page is covered by at least the GNU Free Documentation License. Some contents (notably images and other media files) may use compatible licenses for which you will need to check the terms. These may be public domain, use a copyleft license like Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike, or are used under fair use terms.

How do I cite an Alleypedia article?

Cite it as you would any other web page in accordance with the normal citation practice the publication you are submitting the paper to follows. Because Alleypedia articles are constantly edited, you should include the URL for the specific version of the module you accessed. You can determine this URL by clicking the "Page history" link and clicking on the date of the version you want (likely the one at the top). The URL of the resulting page is a permanent link back to that version no matter what changes are made afterwards. Citing the individual authors is not necessary.

How do I print an Allepedic article?

Newer browsers will be able to access the "print stylesheet" which removes the Alleypedia interface and some colors. Try a print preview (if your browswer has this function) to see how it will print.

Alternatively, you can click the "printable version" link in the toolbox at the bottom of the menu on your left.

Can I mirror Alleypedia on my website?

You can use, copy, redistribute, modify or mirror as much as you wish, as long as you follow the provisions of the GNU Free Documentation License and the licenses of any images or media you use.

Can I get Alleypedia on CD, or download it for offline use?

There are no CDs currently available.
