| Aug 10, 2015 at 12:47 | comment | added | Almo♦ | This is how we do it on StackExchange. We tell people that it's not a good idea to get legal advice here, because it's not legal advice. It's just some random person on the internet giving an answer. Trusting you won't get sued because of what some random person on the internet says isn't smart. But we know that most of these people won't really consult a lawyer. So we give our best answer anyway. | |

| Aug 7, 2015 at 13:13 | comment | added | Anko | I think the first line disclaimer is irrelevant, especially given that Law SE exists. Can we delete it? | |
| Aug 7, 2015 at 12:53 | comment | added | Almo♦ | Are you saying it's not true that he can include Alice in Wonderland, or it's not true he can do what he wants with public domain stuff? Because my answer, if you read it carefully, does not say he can definitely use Alice in Wonderland. | |
