Copyleft: These days everything you can think of is copyrighted, patented, protected or otherwise made into someone's imaginary intellectual property. I have a lot of imagination but not enough to pretend that I have some divine right to share things with you without giving you the right to share it further. That would be childish. So, everything here is licenced under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-Share Alike license. That means that you can bloody well do anything you like with my content as long as you tell that it's from me (or the respective author). Only if you want to make money from my content do you have to ask me permission first. (As if I could be bothered to sue.) Oh, and you can't redistribute your derivate content under more restrictive terms. Share the love.
