Achim lives in Germany, so is very much subject to German law. He's equally subject to German law if he edits the English Wikipedia, though. There is no connection between a particular language Wikipedia and the law of a country that speaks that language. The OP said that the French Wikipedia was illegal, not that contributing to Wikipedia while in France could be illegal. They are very different things. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
