User blog comment:Cloak5000/Too many Open Source characters/@comment-1364856-20130710020645/@comment-6417519-20130710030211

Although, I will say that I do thing this wiki needs stipulations on what is considered an "open source character." People demanding they be given credit as creator is just plain silly. Stan Lee doesn't get credited every time the X-Men appear somewhere, why would a creator want to credit some kid that pencil-drew some character just because? The very definition of "open source" is that they're OPEN SOURCE'd! Laying stipulations is lame. Any characters which require "stipulations" of any kind (and this may sound odd coming from me... aka: open source fan extraordinaire) should probably just go to that creator's own personal web page and stay there. They don't understand the concept of either "open source" or "public domain."
