Imported&merged history from en:

After complaints about GFDL violation by User:ViperSnake151, I imported the revision history from en: and merged it. I hope everyone is happy now. --Mormegil (talk) 09:07, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

For the record: All revisions until 18. 6. 2008, 21:05 (UTC) have been imported from Wikipedia, all revisions since 18. 6. 2008, 23:15 (UTC) have been created here normally. --Mormegil (talk) 09:11, 20 January 2009 (UTC)

"Reusers who are in other jurisdictions"

Reusers who are in other jurisdictions, or who are using material in a considerably different manner than Wikimedia's projects, may find themselves in a less favorable position,

I feel like something is missing here. Other than what? Other than the country of origin? Or does it mean some jurisdictions are more favorable to reusers? If so, which? whym (talk) 09:39, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

How to avoid trademark traps during Wikimedia events

Usually during a computer presentation (like during an hackaton) a single organizer may share a single laptop, and all presentations will use that, so, if it uses Microsoft Windows or macOS or similar proprietary things that have a big amount of trademarked logos, these logos usually land in the recordings, and these recordings usually require extra post-production for "trademark cleanup".

In short, I don't know if this link should be somehow mentioned somewhere, from a Wikimedia Commons' project page, to proactively avoid this kind of situations:

(Don't take this page too seriously, it's just a request for comments)

Thanks for any opinion about how to encourage people in avoiding trademark traps, also during events bozz (talk) 14:22, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
