Thanks for clarificatiom! I see that the rule is basically not to care
about animal rights issues, which is fine with me. (We don't know about

A point I often make is that both Commons and Wikidata provide activities
for new people to get their feet wet in our projects. With Wiki loves

This is really a treasure trove of information. I am looking forward to
savouring it in detail. Many thanks.
One question for now on Point 5: the 3rd graph with values 1 - are those

Do you think that the right to be forgotten may change something in the
Wikipedia's sources and in the work done by volunteers to write Wikipedia?
Google announced that they will apply the right to be forgotten in Europe
and some names may disappear in the big search engine.
As I understand it, the right to be forgotten will only affect the
discoverability of content, rather than existence of content.
So if we rely on a source which says that person X did Y many years ago,
and X succeeds in invoking their right to be forgotten, then the source
will no longer appear
Yes, I know.
But I think that something will change for users writing content (no more
references in the main search engine) but also to discover copyright
infringements.

If I could clone myself I'd be digging into it immediately. Right now,
I'm working on measurement Wikipedias and large cross-wiki analyses. FWIW,

Hi,
To give a little more context: as I indicated on other places as well (and
perhaps by other people), competitions across countries are hard to compare
because they face very different challenges, and it is even unfair to
assume they are the same thing. The goals were not always identical (in

Okay, the code is in place in the alphas of both the Android and iOS apps,
and the server-side 2% sampling (extra header in HTTPS request sent once
per cellular app session) is working.
