It is also normal for partnership agreements to include specifications of how those mentions are carried out to meet certain objectives, while also avoiding problems for both parties. With nearly every one of my clients, this is specified by either an informal or a formal contract, prior to the announcement or commencement of the project. Regrettably, it is also rather normal for the Wikimedia Foundation to pay insufficient attention to such arrangements. This leaves volunteers in the position of cleaning up the mess, and sometimes, of playing the role of the "bad guy" whose image suffers from telling somebody that they can't have what they want. -Pete [[User:Peteforsyth]] _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
