Fae, I have been skeptical of your initial post here (it's hard for me
to see a strong basis for believing those giving the speeches have
relinquished rights), but I very strongly agree with the principle you
articulate here -- it's very important to apply consistent standards.
Readers here might enjoy a more inspiring story on the same topic: our
latest edition of the Signpost contains a nice, concise writeup by
User:Samwalton9, about how effective the collaboration in the Women's
March articles on English Wikipedia was. Highly recommended:
