Quote from the user (Martha Forsyth) who encountered this:

 WikiData: I looked at it, when I went to "log in" I found this notice:

 It's the last one that scared me off.  I do NOT feel qualified to "Perform
administrative actions: Rollback changes to pages; Delete pages, revisions, and
log entries" - I could sure handle "rollback changes" but deleting??!  Not for
me to say!

 I haven't looked into the Privacy Policy yet (I will) but this is a VERY scary
notice.  It LOOKS as if I would be allowing Widar to do things "on my behalf
and in my name" COMPLETELY on its own!  Now, I doubt that is true - but it sure
scared me off, and I was about to dive in!
