So, the law was finally rejected or it was not voted yet?

2011/10/6 Chris Keating chriskeatingw...@gmail.com

 
  Not so easy. Yesterday an amendment has been officially proposed, not
  approved. It will be discussed into the parliament camera, then into the
  parliament senate. Only if both will accept it without modifications
 it'll
  be valid.
 
  Also, the government may ask for trust at the parliament about this law,
  and
  in the case it will be approved in its original form, without amendments.
 
  Maybe your countries are more slender, but in Itlay we are very very
  burocratics.
 
  That's simply a step, not the goal


 I agree with this.

 It's very easy for politicians to say Yes, we've heard what you have said
 and your views are very important to us. We'll definitely think very hard
 about taking your views into account. - and then completely ignore you.

 Don't trust them :-)

2011-10-23 Thread Nickanc Wikipedia
very often in italian history, italian politicians use to postpone votings.
This is tactics: when people gets angry for a law proposal, they delay its
approval saying we trust you, with the hope that later people wouldnt
notice the law proposal. About this law this has already happened: it was
originally proposed in 2009 then delayed, now proposed then delayed because
of our protest.

We'd be nice as well to have it back asap. And we are prompt to do so. But,
please, take into account that the article you linked is actually totally
not accurate, not to say that is just wrong: at the moment the law is
unapproved,
the controversial piece of the law is absolutely unchanged. What we have
achieved is that there is a general orientation to discuss some improvements
(which will met our point), and today will be the critical day for the related
discussions in the Italian Parliament. The it.wiki community is currently
oriented to wait until this afternoon, to see if the promised improvements
are real or if are only political tactics: there is an OPEN discussion about
this point 
herehttp://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Bar/Discussioni/Sciopero:_il_punto_della_situazione.
Few more hour of patience to see if we have achieved real results and we'll
be back.

If there is one thing that cannot be said of the denizens of the
nation where Wikipedia is hosted, it is that they are slender. And we
Brits will be similarly rotund by the end of the decade.

As I understand, the change has only been proposed.

Possibly another interesting issue will develop: the italian wiki was
discontinued by a short vote or poll. I suppose the most democratric way to
terminate it would be another vote or poll. How are they gonna have that
poll if they locked themselves out?

Wikipedia needs to strike just one day to get requests fulfilled.
That's good to know!
