Are you saying that WMF is already heading in that direction (that would be news to me), and now you want our comments on that? Or are you suggesting that WMF should head in that direction? Organizations that agree to such a code of conduct do it for some benefit, for example to avoid the threat of government censorship. I'm sure that if Wikipedia self-restricted itself enough, Chinese authorities would never need to block Wikipedia. But do we need any such benefit? We would rather speak freely (within the scope of encyclopedic knowledge) and be blocked. So, if you are suggesting that any code of conduct would be appropriate, what benefit is it that you have in mind? Who threatens to block Wikipedia unless we voluntarily agree? -- Lars Aronsson ([email protected]) Aronsson Datateknik - http://aronsson.se _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
