Me, as I said. He asked if Wikipedia could be sued. I said that as a US organisation it wasn't affected by UK injunctions, though UK based editors were, but that we didn't put stuff in if it wasn't really well referenced anyway. As I said, he picked a few sentences out of half an hour's careful explanation. Possibly I should have just told him to bugger off, but that doesn't generally work out well except when they're well known to be an arsehole. - d. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org
