Absolutely not. Leave that kind of spying to advertising companies and three letter agencies.

Would turn into an argument over definitions. For example is the Mabinogion accessible? Public domain, copies can be found on various websites but I don't speak welsh. Limiting it to English gets to the next problem. Is this accessible: https://www.aanda.org/articles/aa/full_html/2014/11/aa21621-13/aa21621-13.html Its in English but I don't have a degree in physics. Where there are more obvious limits it gets more complicated. You may be tempted to lump all paywalls together is it really fair to lump something that costs €1 for total access in with something that charges $40 for one article. Does the currency it charges in make a difference? Books too have their fun aspects. Try automating judging the relative accessibility of Birmingham's Electric Dustcarts and 7000 years of jewelry. -- geni _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
