I am not sure whether or not Anne and Zach are on this list, so I'm CCing
them explicitly so that they can shed light.

Am I missing something …? Is this not the video that
the Wikimedia
Foundation created for visibility in Nigeria? It is great that it is
receiving some visibility … but the way it is presented here looks like
they made it (perhaps they were involved in the making - I can see that
Emmanuella is the actress, yes?).
However, they have put forward this version as a standard YouTube license
and I imagine it was released under CC-BY-SA license as per usual …
Perhaps the WMF should have a word ?

Hi Daniel,
Do you think this should be compensatory or they indeed meet our
notability guidelines?. For example, if they meet the English Wikipedia
notability guideline, someone with no conflict of interest who think they
are notable will probably write about them there. This does not implies
that you have a conflict of interest but I don't think this is something
you should start a thread about. They were engaged by WMF to produce the
video and I think they were paid for their services. Even if it was done
free of charge, they would merit a page on Wikipedia only if they pass the
notability guideline. Feel free to write about them on any Wikipedia of
your choice if you are sure they meet the notability criteria.
Regards,
Isaac

Mark Angel and Emmanuella just contributed
greatly to Wikimedia by
sensitizing their 1.3 million plus fan base Wikipedia in an
intelligently humorous way. It's something the Wikimedia community
would love to see. They had deserved a page so long ago!
