I don't think wordsmithing a boilerplate email footer to solve a
hypothetical problem is really a worthwhile use of staff and trustee time.

If you'd like someone who's involved in the product and strategy side of
tech to help out in a working group, committee, or whatever else, let me
know. I'd be happy to help.

There are links on there now which have the CC logo on them, but they point
to the Wikipedia article on the Creative Commons licence, rather than to
the text of the licence itself. If you want to use a Wikipedia link, you
can use

Creating a set of moderation guidelines to cover the few people on
moderation on this list is not really an efficient use of my time. I would
imagine most people feel the same way.

If someone makes a mistake when putting content into the new website, then
that mistake will remain for longer as volunteers won't be able to fix it.
On the other hand, a wiki isn't a great primary website for an
organisation, and WMUK should gain a lot from having a website that's
easier to naviga
For those not up on the governance, what are the practical ramifications of
this for the chapter?
Thanks,

Something similar was tried at the Wikimedia Foundation, with the Article

Irrespective of whether or not Tom's comments reflect badly on the charity,
this public bickering definitely does. It's also outside the scope of the
thread.
I'd suggest taking this off-list, please.

Given that it's in Manchester, I might as well go along. If anyone else
plans to go, let me know and we can meet up beforehand.

Well, that's fine too. People can choose how they wish to identify
themselves. Indeed, people don't even need to create a profile if they find
it not to their liking.

Hi Daria,
I hope you're well.
York isn't so far away from my location (an hour on the train, a return
ticket may cost as little as £15 if I book in advance) so I'd be interested

Have you involved the LCA team from the WMF in the drafting of this privacy
policy? No doubt they would have some helpful comments. I could get in
touch with Geoff and Luis about this, if you'd like me to?
