Research direction
Start with _includes/sidebar.html at the referenced line and compare the current licensing text with the archived Main_Page copies linked in the issue. Before changing it, check with contributors as requested; done means the sidebar reflects the confirmed GNU Free Documentation License version rather than “All rights reserved.”
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
As can be verified using http://archive.org to view old copies of the website, the wiki content was licensed under the "GNU Free Documentation License 1.2." http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/fdl-1.2.html (since superceded by v1.3), e.g.
- https://web.archive.org/web/20060613062104/http://biopython.org:80/wiki/Main_Page (oldest)
- https://web.archive.org/web/20160330125201/http://biopython.org:80/wiki/Main_Page (most recent)
We'd need to check with the contributors since the GitHub migration, and then update the new template here which currently says "All rights reserved.":
