Fairuse distinguish between commercial nature and nonprofit educational purposes. I understand your argument that fairuse policy cannot apply to wikia, which would effect all of our media, but wikia has been walking that line for a long time and I am not qualified to give legal commentary on its policy. So as before, what I intended to ask was how this disclaimer fits within our current use policy.

I've already stated my opinion that most wikias, including this one, only give lip service to copyright laws. I've also stated my opinion that I find the proposed disclaimer ridiculous because it only only disclaims our own work while ignoring all the copyrighted material that it should be disclaiming.

I like the proposed disclaimer exactly because it only pertains to our own work, offering the same notice used everywhere. And dont restate things already covered by wikia policy, we don't have GOT agreement so no need to add ("The CW may request...") which may imply we have some sort of agreement with the CW.

p.s. the way I look at it, is that CW scripts are copyrighted material, but from the examples provided by the writers, our second hand reproduction are very different, and include a lot of scene interpretation.
