           Summary: Move wiki to www.wikimedia.org.uk to avoid confusion
                    with Wikimedia Ukraine
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://uk.wikimedia.org/
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: DNS
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: mediaw...@mikepeel.net


Since the Wikimedia UK (United Kingdom; WMUK) website was set up at
http://uk.wikimedia.org/, the Ukrainian chapter (Wikimedia Ukraine; WMUA) has
been established. As the Ukrainian Wikipedia is set up at
http://uk.wikipedia.org/, the presence of WMUK at the wikimedia version of the
domain has caused confusion.

The obvious way to resolve this confusion would be to move the WMUK wiki to
www.wikimedia.org.uk, with uk.wikimedia.org being turned into a three-way
disambiguation page (to WMUK, WMUA and the Ukrainian Wikipedia). However, WMUK
needs to retain control of this domain name, including the email addresses and
subdomains.

Is it possible to have such a setup with the wiki still hosted by the WMF, and
hence using Single User Login etc.?

Thanks,
Mike Peel
Chair, Wikimedia UK
