I think if the Italian Wikipedians fought against an Italian bill of law trying to make them liable for a large series of complaints, they should also have a closer look at the draft terms of use prepared by the Wikimedia Foundation. How much shall the new "Indemnity" clause cost to Wikipedians ? More or less than the 12000 € fine of the Italian bill of law ? > Also posted on the meta page: > > You are misunderstanding the interplay between these sections.
