Category talk:Restricted Tunes
So what does "Restricted" mean here? Under copyright? If so, I disagree in the case of "O store Gud". At most Manna/Hines may claim copyright in an arrangement. The tune is a Swedish folk tune. (And since they also claim copyright in the words to "How Great Thou Art" without, historically anyway, giving due credit to Boberg, I am disinclined to cut them any legally unnecessary slack on their copyrights. --Haruo 13:45, 18 May 2007 (MDT)
Ah, restricted means the following: the content is under copyright where at least some rights may be restricted from the public (basically, it just means stuff that's not public domain; I put this description in the main restricted category, but not in some of the child categories, apparently - thanks for letting me know). Thanks for the information about O store Gud and the lyrics. I suppose it should go under restricted arrangements and public domain tunes (perhaps public domain melodies would be better). Do they have to give credit to Boberg to keep the copyright? For the purposes of this site, if it is copyrighted, but cannot be legally enforced, it still counts as restricted (unless they have somehow lost the copyright). Veramet 21:59, 18 May 2007 (MDT)
