Until today they were considering to implement, but finally they

Youtube. Now you got it?

Hi!
It is totally clear that all the Wikipedias must respect and follow

I think the assumption is that any Wikipedia will adopt the general
policies found on the English Wikipedia, but tailor them for local
conditions. A project which wishes to significantly deviate from the
general principles of everyone can edit, neutral point of view, and using
