Hi all,
First of all, thanks for reporting the issue. Impressive reactivity :)
Then, sorry for the intempestive and unwelcome communication about this local partnership. The agreement is quite clear, it has been established by Wikimédia France (of course *not* in name of Wikimedia Foundation) and our partners are obviously *not allowed* to use any of Wikimedia projects marks.
Today, Request Network updated their posts to clarify things and suppressed Wikipedia logo from their communication messages : — https://www.reddit.com/r/RequestNetwork/comments/8firkq/ update_to_clarify_wikimedia_france_partnership/ — https://blog.request.network/request-network-project-update-april-27th- 2018-partnership-with-wikimedia-woocommerce-plugin-c598372e9b58
We updated our blog post as well, with an introductive warning : — https://www.wikimedia.fr/2018/04/27/wikimedia-france- annonce-partenariat-fondation-request-network-accepter- donations-crypto-monnaies/
After the week-end and labor day (1 May), we are expecting that all occurrences of this misunderstanding have disappeared.

Definitly confusing.

According to their twitter feed they have announced a partnership with something called the "Request Network" for cryptocurrency donations. Also this article here

Ok. I don't approve but I'm not french so not its not an area where I can reasonably expect anyone to pay any attention to my opinions.
What concerns me is that they have retweeted something claiming the partnership is with the wikimedia foundation rather than just wikimedia france:

Is some form of clarification possible?
