I have taken notice of the CC0 license and its intended effects, and hereby declare that all my past and future contributions to the OSDev.org Wiki are licensed under the effect of the CC0.

Whatever I've added to the wiki, I myself consider to be public domain, though. Also, methinks it would be easier to just add a clause in the TOS that states that all info added to the wiki is under cc0.

CC0 implies public domain in the countries where that is legally possible.

This process is for people who have already contributed. I believe such a term should be added to the Wiki TOS, licensing page, and edit page if it hasn't been already

I do not consent to have my content reissued under any license other than what it was written as. However, as I only fixed links and formatting issues in the main project namespace, I don't think any of my contributions rises to the level of copyrightability in the first place.
