Are there any standard source-available licenses?
For open source software, I can easily use a widely-used open source license (e.g. MIT, Apache, GPLv3, MPLv2, etc.). However, source-available licenses are less easy to find.
Are there any source-available licenses that I can readily copy to apply to my software? I am hesitant to copy the source-available licenses listed on Wikipedia because license texts are copyrighted by default and should not be copied without permission from the author of the license text.
Specifically, I am looking for a source-available license that has conditions similar to the GitLab Enterprise Edition (EE) license that I can use for my software.
Maybe you should be more specific about what you expect such a license to accomplish?

@citytree Why don't you use the Gitlab license you give as an example? You can make changes to it as you like, add conditions, remove phrases. And I'm not sure if the non free license text itself falls under copyright. I never thought about this before.
