It is being brought.

Oh, he's doin' somethin'...

Another editor is doing extensive changes to this article right now, and is requesting that all other editors hold off on any edits until their work is finished, in order to make sure nothing important gets lost.

The Zeloxenia Media Fandom License (also ZX License) is a pre-conditional license grant for the re-use of small portions of content found on this site. The ZX License is available to parties who already have the license to produce official Transformers material.

Principles

Customary Freehold
A type of unwritten tenant/holder relationship where the tenant and holder are both granted certain rights and incur certain responsibilities towards one another without an act of the holder's will, by virtue of a long-standing residence. The tenant occupies a legal status somewhere between neighbor and guest.
Xenia (Ξενία or "reciprocal hospitality")
A principle of of hospitality, generosity or courtesy governing "guest-friendship", the ritually recognized binding reciprocal relationship between guest and host.

Application of these principles

naturally occurring

becausefor we are entering into a world where all human interaction is a matter of record... the old unwritten ("ad hoc") situational legal relationships are coming into play again... because there's somply too much interaction. That which used ot be fleeting or untracable has instead all become permenantly logged. It is impossible for positive law to givern the basic interaction of all humans... both because it's bad for that interaction and simply because the time/$ foes not work; positive law is intended for buig stuff "real" stuff, or realer than what's it's being applied to. The unwritten/unspoken laws are naturally expanding again to fill the void.

MELROSE PLACE IS A CLOSED-BOX ENTERTAINMENT. IT'S OFFERED AS IS WITH NO USER_SERVICABLE PARTS INSIDE. Cntrast to open-box or sandbox entertainments where user narrative or roleplay is actively encouraged. Melrose place actively shuts down any derivations. Sandbox franchises liek D&D and Transformers have enouraged the growth of those derivations... and can no more suddenly retract them than___ (monoology price-hike) or encouraging kleenex's generic use when it's good, but claiming no one can use it's when it's bad... at that point your ABILITY TO FORBID the most conservative usages has already been eroded or given up.

"Lagom measure" - the measure which does not prohibit use, but also does not encourage it.

License text

  1. Adopt a second pre-conditional license offered to producers who have the license to create Transformers works and includes the following clauses;
    1. CRIB from CC-BY-SA3: If any provision of this License is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of the terms of this License, and without further action by the parties to this agreement, such provision shall be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make such provision valid and enforceable.
    2. CRIB from GFDL 1.3: The [Us] may publish new, revised versions of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. [...] If the Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by [US].
the above is a legal basis for "fix it later in a way that still applies to stuff licensed now."
