Re: [Centralnotice-admins] Wikimania's live
Hi Joseph, If I recall correctly, there is also an issue of privacy and cookies with such as external websites. I must admit i'm not sharing the same extremist point of view of privacy concern as others within the movement are sharing. But as I know there is a big issues around that with many of the editors, I think it's worth to mention it. But aside of that. Youtube it's a commercial website, why do we directing traffic to Youtube and not for example - embedding the live video on a post on our blog (as I know we can't embed it on Wiki) - and then would benefit from driving traffic to our own sites as well as avoiding (a direct) privacy issues (as there is also using of cookies when you embed videos) *Regards,Itzik Edri* Chairperson, Wikimedia Israel +972-54-5878078 | http://www.wikimedia.org.il Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge. That's our commitment!

Re: [Centralnotice-admins] Wikimania's live
Hey Itzik, So the writing of that guideline needs to be rewritten since it's not conveyed the intentions behind it and I should have looked to correct that guideline. The original idea what that it would allow linking to sites whereby a Wikimedia entity controls the content of the landing page not necessarily owning the domain itself or hosting the site. This is meant to allow for things like Wikimedia controlled youtube streams such as this, Wikimedia controlled eventbrite pages for Wikimedia run conferences, surveys created and maintained by Wikimedia but hosted on third party websites such as surveymonkey, google or qualtrics (groups like the Irish use group and other affiliates) or hosted MOOC content that is hosted on a third party website but whose content is maintained by Wikimedia (such as that run by Wikimedia France) I hope that makes sense. Silver lining is that I am glad that this list isn't completely dead.

I saw the central notice direct the users the foundation's YouTube channel. According to the guidelines: "*Wikimedia Owned* - Banners must link to Wikimedia controlled domains (owned either by Wikimedia Foundation, Wikimedia affiliates or Wikimedia Volunteers identified to the Wikimedia Foundation)." It's a bit problematic... *Regards,Itzik Edri* Chairperson, Wikimedia Israel +972-54-5878078 | http://www.wikimedia.org.il Imagine a world in which every single human being can freely share in the sum of all knowledge.
