I like the name: Crayonpedia,* an Indonesian language site creating open education resources for schools** (with some content in English). With 2000 pages already, it's got the makings of a great resource. If you know Indonesian, you can read more about Crayonpedia. (I confess I haven't read it all yet.)

Good question. The only thing I could find was this: http://www.crayonpedia.org/wiki/index.php/Memulai_halaman_baru#Menggunakan_bak_pasir which suggests it's GFDL - but that's copied from the Indo Wikipedia at id.wiktionary.org/wiki/Wiktionary:Memulai_halaman_baru.

When editing there's a notice that is in the spirit of a free license, but the link to the Copyrights page ([[Crayonpedia:Hak cipta]]) is a redlink, i.e. no page yet.

So, I don't think they've thought it through yet. I'm not sure that free licenses have any validity in Indonesian law, but the important thing is that they are a clear expression of intent.

I was going to say "and it's not like copyrights are actually enforced in Indonesia" but that's not necessarily true - it would depend whose toes you step on. Like how you can get any pirated DVD, but they don't get away with pirating Indonesian artists' work.
