Innovation Law and Policy Editathon

I worked on this page as part of the Innovation Law and Policy Editathon hosted by NYU Law School's Engelberg Center. I've significantly re-organized and updated this page. Here's a list of key changes I've made:

Converted from a list to sortable wikitable
Added a link to the decision for each case
Added more cases
Added information about each case, including vote, opinion authors, general subject matter of the case, and a categorization of whether the case deals with substantive copyright law, litigation procedural issues of copyright law, or is a non-copyright case (with significance for copyright issues).

The following still needs doing

Summaries need updating/development
Statute references should be completed or scrapped - unclear how useful this is
Vote counts probably could use verifying, especially on older cases.

Hope this is useful! Absentminded (talk) 01:16, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
