Hello everyone,

The hours are ticking down until this Wednesday’s vote on the EU Copyright Reform, and everything you do to reach out to the MEPs counts! There are positive amendments for free knowledge on the table, and some troubling ones, too. With less than two days until MEPs vote on amendments to the EU Commission’s proposal -- we are making our final push to encourage engagement on the troubling issue of pre-filtering and promising amendments on public domain safeguards, freedom of panorama, user-generated content exceptions, and a broader exception for text and data mining. We know that you all care about all of those things. Please support this campaign!

We have just published a new blog post outlining Wikimedia’s analysis of the tabled amendments, as well as specific amendments we would like the community to support. The best way to support these is to visit and share fixcopyright.wikimedia.org and encourage everyone to contact their MEPs.

This is our chance to show that our community is made up of diverse voices all joining together to make a difference. Please help us to make sure that your voice and others’ are heard!

Best,

Jan
