There are links on there now which have the CC logo on them, but they point

Thank you everyone for the constructive comments so far. I can't promise I

Love it. Nice clean design - welcoming and professional.

Just one niggle - the images are all loading REALLY slowly for me

Hi Stevie,

Unsurprisingly, I really don't like it. :-(

But more seriously: it breaches WMUK's privacy policy by giving information 
about visitors to the site directly to Google and Youtube (and also the WMF, 
but that's less of an issue). It also doesn't link to the privacy policy, 
though, so maybe it doesn't apply to this website?

Additionally, you are breaching the terms of the CC-BY-SA-4.0 license by your 
use of my photo at:

without attribution, and without linking to the appropriate license. Please fix 
that within the 30 days grace period described in the license text.

Thanks,

[Wikimediauk-l] New overlaying website is live

2014-08-08 Thread Stevie Benton
Hello everyone,

I'm very happy to report that Wikimedia UK's new overlay website is live.
Just to reiterate that this is intended for people new to our work and
encountering us for the first time. Experienced Wikimedians and our
community are not the primary audience for this. But I'd like to know what
you think, so please do take a look.

https://wikimedia.org.uk/

I expect there are refinements needed and I have spotted a couple myself
but on the whole I am happy with it. I hope you like it.

Huge thanks to everyone who helped on this, especially Emmanul Engelhart
and Tom Morton for their enormous patience and great skill.

Stevie
