message: All forms of licenses should be seperated, and not combined, as they have notting to do with topic, but rather as sub-categories, or child for that matter. ---Barry Dick <barryd.it@gmail.com>
Raw content that needs work before inclusion in the main article. A linkage list would also be good at the end of the main article linking the various types of "licenses". I will update the article if and when I have time. Please use the following to help write the article. ---maveric149 12:43, 25 February 2002

message: Could somebody add a section on the difference between a license and a permit?  There's a legal distinction, but I'm not an expert.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by BillMcGonigle (talk • contribs) 21:17, 16 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  license vs permit 

message: I have removed some sections as they appear to be commercial sites and the links don't actually point directly to relevant pages. they were to business.gov and permitmeLeeVJ (talk) 00:38, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  removal of sections 

message: The redirect Nonexclusive license, which redirects here, is currently being discussed at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2008 July 6, with deletion possible, though unlikely. Regardless of the outcome of the discussion, I think a section should be added to this article about the exclusive character of some licenses (such as franchisees of store chains being granted the exclusivity of the chain's name within a certain geographical area). --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 23:38, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I came here to find out what a "Non-exclusive license" is. The term appears nowhere in the article and so I still don't know. Sort it out, somebody. 81.131.49.174 (talk) 15:13, 26 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Exclusive and nonexclusive license 

message: This should be handled too. Now it's only implicated by the licenses. It's a complex topic and deserves a thorough discussion on the legal and ethical considerations. 85.76.91.90 (talk) 18:31, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Limits of licensing 

message: Page License currently says "The verb licence [...]. The noun license (American English) or licence (British English, [...]".   As I understand it, this implies that the verb is always spelled Licence, independent of the form of English.    However, other websites indicate that in American English the verb is spelled License; see American and British English spelling differences, http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/american_english/license, http://oxforddictionaries.com/definition/english/licence, http://www.grammar-monster.com/easily_confused/licence_license.htm, http://www.englishclub.com/writing/spelling_american-english.htm, http://www3.telus.net/linguisticsissues/BritishCanadianAmerican.htm, http://www.talktalk.co.uk/reference/dictionaries/english/data/d0082350.html.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.230.5.169 (talk) 12:16, 14 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The first two sentences cover the difference.  However, I'm not sure it totally matches my own (en-GB) understanding which is that you license a licence in the same way that you devise a device or advise on advice.  —Sladen (talk) 12:39, 14 August 2012 (UTC)

message: What about a driver's license, a dog license, a marriage license, and so on?  "License" in many, many contexts has nothing to do with "permission to use the material". --Dan Wylie-Sears 2 (talk) 17:55, 23 June 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: A driving licence is permission to drive. A dog licence is permission to keep a dog. A marriage licence is permission to marry. Steepleman (t) 08:47, 22 September 2021 (UTC)
