No need to beat around the bush here - the purpose of e-mailing this list was explicitly to canvass for more opinions, more participants. The policy on en.wp is of mixed usefulness, imho, and often abused to restrict the availability of useful input and illumination. It doesn't apply to this list or to Commons or Meta. On the actual topic - what's the base process for selecting a still from a featured video? Is it automatic once the video is selected? Does the user have to specify a particular frame? ~Nathan _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
