This is just a comment on an important marketing characteristic. If the pro-copyright side is trying to co-opt the concept of 'creators' as indicating *them*, this would be a particular issue to push back on - and Wikimedians in particular want to be recognized as creators.
(In general, people are much more likely to support creators, and less likely to support a rather small number of corporations who own or manage the rights of creative works.)
I definitely think this should be a key theme of all Wikimedia-related advocacy - trying to show that "creators" these days is everyone, not just some isolated industries. I've tried to work that into the EU answers where possible, but suggestions on where else it can be done are welcome.
