Re: Suggestions for Improved Content on Wikimedia
I was wondering if it would be a good idea to maybe approach some of the folks
who have fashion blogs, to see if they'd be willing to donate older photos.
Even photos that are more than a couple of years old would be very useful for
illustrating different fashion-related articles. There might be
personality-right problems, though, I don't know what the legalities would be.
A solution to that might be having the images pixelated or adding the
bar-across-the-eyes (like in the Glamour magazine dos-and-donts feature).

gt; I#39;m very disturbed that my comments are now googleable. And I guess so
gt; is this one I#39;m writing right now. There#39;s no context and
it#39;s just ery
gt; disturbing. My short has been seen in 25 film festivals around the
gt; world and now it appears that any comment I make is googleable, which
gt; will have a deleterious effect on me in terms of getting a job. Please
gt; remove all my comments. I#39;m really upset -- I#39;m afraid of what I
say.

quot;...This analysis will focus on characteristics of female participants on
English Wikipedia. The analysis will look to see if these participants are
representative of the female English speaking population. The analysis will
also explore, through some existing literature and in the conclusion, the
question of whether these potential differences could matter when planning
strategy to target the gender gap. ?quot;

Hi everyone,
I#39;m starting a list of media (specifically still photography but with
potential for video, as well) which needs improvement or doesn#39;t exist on
Commons. Not specifically quot;women#39;s themesquot; (we all love to argue
what that
