Subject: [Wikimedia-l] Re: Sanctions against the Russian Federation; support for Ukrainian
Wikimedians
I agree and I think that the best support is to offer a neutral and complete information
against any kind of propaganda.
This is what Wikimedia can do better.
Kind regards

Thanks for your support! The best "sanctions" WMF can implement is raising
awareness about the whole situation. For example, the promotion of Ukraine's Cultural
Diplomacy Month 2022

Russian Wikipedia: unfortunately, most likely it will get banned in the Federation. More
than 70 Russian Wikipedians wrote open letter to us on our village pump

where they condemned the invasion, so WMF might support people who signed this letter
legally because of possible threats.
Best regards,

I wonder if a banner raising awareness regarding the existence of offline apps
specifically Kiwix for when communication goes down would be useful?

+1 on the "what can we all do to help?" question. On the VPN topic, I suspect
the functionary teams will be pretty open to granting IPBE for folks editing from that
region.
