Wikimedia Foundation non-free image deadline
Hi there. Please see: I also wonder if you would be able to advise on the best way to get clarification of the Foundation Licensing policy? The points I've raised here concern historical images and some mentions I've seen of a deadline. What I've said over there is as follows:"'[What] about this bit of the policy? 'Such EDPs must be minimal. Their use, with limited exception, should be to illustrate historically significant events...' - it says right there: 'to illustrate historically significant events'. [...] Also, I've seen people say that there is a deadline of 'March 23, 2008' to sort all this out, but in fact that deadline is currently written as a subclause of point 6. ie. It only applies to projects without an EDP. 'For the projects which currently do not have an EDP in place, the following action shall be taken [...] By March 23, 2008, all existing files under an unacceptable license as per the above must either be accepted under an EDP, or shall be deleted.' This may just be a mistake in the layout of the Licensing Policy, but if this is so, it needs to be changed and the change widely advertised.'" As well as the 'deadline' confusion, my concern is also over historical images. I would be grateful if you could bring these points to the attention of the board if this needs clarification.
 * Administrators' noticeboard

The above was written in August 2007 (the bit about historical images can be ignored for the moment - it is the deadline that needs clarification at board level) and left here, but got no response (as far as I can tell). For obvious reasons, it would be good if you, or other members of the Wikimedia Board of Trustees, could comment at the Administrators' noticeboard discussion, or find your way to where-ever the discussion ends up. I've notified the other Board Members where they have en-wiki user pages. Carcharoth (talk) 10:28, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Moved from userPage
hi there - I notice that you are quite high up in Wiki so wonder whether you could give me some advice & assistance, if necessary. Earlier today, I updated the Wiki page for Sir Alan Yarrow in all languages (including Italian: Sir Alan Yarrow) to reflect his appointment as a Knight Bachelor in the New Year's Honours List. I then attempted to clean up my Talk Page with a view to starting 2016 afresh, but by doing this simple task I have now been landed with a 36-hour ban. Also my comment about archiving old discussions has been deleted - is this how Italian Wikipedia treats people who are keen to provide it with good info? I await your reply, and please advise how I can delete my entire entry on Italian Wiki if matters cannot be dealt with satisfactorily. Many thanks. M Mabelina (talk) 10:58, 31 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi Frieda - I know silence is supposed to be golden, but I hadn't realised by quite how much to Italian Wikipedians! I have responded to Gac and look forward to hearing from you both. Happy New Year. Best M Mabelina (talk) 00:01, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
