Just plain curiosity.) Neither did the board, which is why we passed the amendment -- because there seemed to be some confusion on the matter :) My take on the resolution -- not formally speaking for the board -- is what I said on Commons: that the board feels Wikimedians should exercise equal care when dealing with all portrayals of living people on our various projects. So while the resolution is not meant to drive to a very specific change and was not in response to any single incident, it is meant as a statement of principles that we can use to guide the development of process and policy -- and as with our past resolution about images of individual people, I think we should examine our policies and decisions in light of these principles. best, Phoebe _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
