I don't really understand how this is a response to my question, but thanks for the pointer anyway. It doesn't explain why we would want one rule for all projects, it doesn't explain why we want it to be 'enforcable' in the first place.
I'm answering also here to keep the discussion streamlined.
Best, Lodewijk

would be the best place to make this kind of decisions?
As I understand it, the Terms of Use are Wikimedia-wide, and I'm not 100% certain this is the kind of rule we'd want to apply on all projects the same way. The community (both language and project) might want to derive from it - either way.
Hi, Lodewijk - Geoff responded to this general concern here:

Hope that helps answer the question.
