License

DBpedia is derived from Wikipedia and is distributed under the same licensing terms as Wikipedia itself. As Wikipedia has moved to dual-licensing, we also dual-license DBpedia starting with release 3.4.

Data comprising DBpedia release 3.4 and subsequent releases is licensed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 license and the GNU Free Documentation License. Data comprising DBpedia releases up to and including release 3.3 is licensed only under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.

Best Practice for Attribution

Attribution in this case means keep DBpedia URIs visible and active through at least one (preferably all) of @href, <link />, or "Link:". If live links are impossible (e.g., when printed on paper), a textual blurb-based attribution is acceptable.
