Re: [Wikimediaindia-l] [Press]: The Indian Express : "Would Gandhi have been a Wikipedian?"

Srikanth, There is copyright law in India for last many decades and most people were/are following the same before wikipedia had not taken a birth. There is no need to make generic comments on Indians for no reason. We are Indians and we should be proud of that..... With Regards, Mandar V.

Also heard elsewhere on another list on the same topic that news is meant to be shared, so no harm. Frankly all this obsession on copyright only after editing Wikipedia, otherwise since when people in India thought of copyright seriously. -- Regards Srikanth.L _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l _______________________________________________ Wikimediaindia-l mailing list Wikimediaindia-l(a)lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from the list / change mailing preferences visit https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaindia-l
