I'm not a lawyer but I think any unique text you write you own the copyright to by default. It's a different question whether this should be so or not.

- adolph 5y agoCould part of text be a release of the inherent copyright stemming from creation?
- webmaven 5y agoSure. If you want your text to be as close to public domain as possible, the Creative Commons No Rights Reserved license (AKA CC0) should work: https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc...
- adolph 5y agoI don’t see any disclaimer of copyright for the license text. If another organization took that license text and promoted it as if it were their own, would Creative Commons have grounds to pursue infringement against that other organization? https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/legalcode https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/legalcode
- galaxyLogic 5y agoMy guess is they could, unless they state somewhere that the license text is licensed with the Creative Commons License or some other permissive license
