Hello,

OSM Poland community is working on enriching map of border with Ukraine to
help Ukrainian refugees access reception points.

Pull request can be submitted here.

As Wikimedians, we could do something similar which can be of practical use
to the Ukrainian people for now like enriching more information and data
about Western Ukraine, Poland, Romania, Hungary etc. in Ukrainian language
using which they might get some relief and can reorganize.

Changing the color of Wikipedia logo to Ukrainian flag have some major
issues though. It might show our solidarity but it also can show that we
take side in geopolitics questioning our neutrality. We hadn't changed
color during other invasions in recent times.

That might raise question about our biasness towards certain players. But
anyway, it all depends on how the community thinks.

Regards,
Bodhisattwa
