That'd break deep links all over the place. In this case I'd suggest not worrying about it unless and until the Daily Mail actually object - in which case we ask for the post to be deleted promptly - and to take care in posting full articles in future. - d. ___ Wikimedia UK mailing list wikimediau...@wikimedia.org http://mail.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediauk-l WMUK: http://uk.wikimedia.org

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Daily Mail on Flagged Revisions
On which basis it would be wisest to *not* post this material here. I base that on having been reprimanded for similar actions on other lists, and feedback from the technical people that it is very difficult/inconvenient to remove posts from the archive. So while it might be convenient, someone will have serious headaches if the Daily Mail demands the content be removed from the archive.
