licenses. Something which was
supported by the Strategy 2030, at least in
part.
As far as I know this was only ever in a first iteration draft
recommendation
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2018-20/Recommendations/Iteration_1/Diversity/9>
of
the Strategy process, and faced strong opposition
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Strategy/Wikimedia_movement/2018-20/Recommendations/Iteration_1/Diversity/9>
so
went no further.
With regards to this particular image the Diff footer and Commons file
page
<https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pi%C3%B1a-Seda-_Pineapple_and_Silk_Cloths_from_the_Philippines_12.jpg>
both
indicate it is in fact released under CC-BY-SA 4.0. The caption on Diff
should probably be adjusted to avoid confusion.

Hey Eric
Great initiative. Was reading the diff post and what popped out
immediately was that the image used is licensed NC ND :-)
https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/09/02/do-you-want-support-with-content-part…
This means we have a WMF project that is officially using NC and ND
licenses. Something which was supported by the Strategy 2030, at least in
part.
We at Wiki Project Med Foundation have started NC Commons
<https://nccommons.org/wiki/Main_Page> to help facilitate the use of NC
and ND licensed material within mediawiki installs. Not all countries, like
the US, release government content public domain. Most, if they use openish
licenses actually go with NC ones such as South Africa which we have here
<https://nccommons.org/wiki/Category:Photographs_by_GovernmentZA>.
We are looking for help with batch uploading of NC and ND licensed
material to NC Commons. We are working to move the data storage to Internet
Archives as part of a collaboration with them to cut down on our hosting
costs after which we want to look at importing Ted Talks and Khan academy
videos.

Hi everyone,
A while back, Wikimedia Sverige announced the upcoming Helpdesk of the
Content Partnerships Hub, a service to support Wikimedians that want to
work with partners to share content on the Wikimedia platforms.
Now, when the Helpdesk is finally up and running, the next thing needed
are your requests for help!
I just published a blog post on Diff
<https://diff.wikimedia.org/2022/09/02/do-you-want-support-with-content-partnerships-the-helpdesk-is-here-to-help/>
[1]
where I try to outline the process. A lot is still under development, but
you can already now read more on the Helpdesk portal on Meta
<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Content_Partnerships_Hub/Helpdesk>
[2].
The basic idea, however, is that anyone that wants support with a
project sends an email to *helpdesk(a)wikimedia.se
<helpdesk(a)wikimedia.se>*e>*. Describe what you want to do and what you
want to achieve, and in what way it contributes to filling a gap on the
platforms, and the Helpdesk will do what it can to help. The support can be
anything from technical and batch uploads to policy-making or advocacy. We
look forward to getting your proposals!
We also want to invite Wikimedians to join the work. We plan to
establish working groups to support with anything from communication to
advocacy and actual uploads. If you are a volunteer or an affiliate that
wants to support, please reach out as well! You can email *helpdesk(a)wikimedia.se
<helpdesk(a)wikimedia.se> *for this as well.
Best
