Contacting staff?

Hey I'm wondering who I can contact about making film projects using SCP content? I found some info on the main wiki about contacting a staff member but I want to be sure that the SCP articles are fair use

All of the SCP articles are under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0. So long as you follow this license's terms, you should be good.

The only exception to this is SCP-173's photo and likeness, which can only be used for non-commercial purposes. tbh the Foundation site's not really clear on how that works though. Since the text for 173's article is under Creative Commons, couldn't you get around that by claiming you're working off of 173's description rather than photo?

Outside of that though the licensing for everything else is clear-cut. You can find more information about it here: http://www.scp-wiki.net/licensing-guide

Awesome, thanks a million. I'll get started on a web series and make sure to link the references to the specific articles. If anyone hasn't said it already, I love you.
