I'll just repost my response on October 5 verbatim since the argument has come up again despite already being dealt with in my opinion.

A commercial licence is definitely involved from the evidence that has been presented and it has already been established that the official release date is that set by the publisher. There are probably hundreds of stories that have been released for free currently valid on this wiki, being free does not preclude its inclusion here.
