<div><br> Drafted a sort-of policy here: <a href="http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Watermarks">http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Watermarks</a><br><br>Please take a look and edit, fix, discuss, etc. if you have suggestions or if I made any mistakes. Thinking on it now, we could perhaps condense the info by moving suggestions and tips to another page and linking them from the "official policy" page, which only contains the basic rules?
<br><br>Input much appreciated :) <br></div></div><br>-- <br>Ayelie<br> ~Editor at Large
