Hello Pine,

I am interested in the community's perspective on any legal or policy issues that are related to our work. I know there are many Wikimedians who are passionate and knowledgeable in this area, so I hope this list can be a forum to share individual opinions and updates about broader discussions within the community. I am especially interested in any community discussions about advocacy, such as the recent protests on the Italian, Tagalog, and Russian Wikipedias (Wikipediae?).

At the moment, I am sharing news stories I find interesting. These are not necessarily points for advocacy, although any feedback or opinion is certainly welcome. I hope that if someone were to ask me about a point of advocacy (such as, for example, preparing an amicus brief), I could turn to this group for consultation.

The list is relative young, so we are still finding our stride. If you have any suggestions, I would be happy to hear it!

Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Can you clarify what kinds of questions or feedback you are seeking in regards to posts that you make to the Advocacy Advisers list? While I find the information useful and interesting, I'm not sure what discussion or feedback would be useful to WMF.

Thanks,

Pine
