Thank you, Maria for passing this on, and to the Board of Trustees for adding wording to the resolution that more clearly conveys that WMF projects are creating content and acting as a repository for a broad range of media that have the potential to cause harm to living people.

Hi everyone,
We'd like to draw your attention to our recent amendment of the 2009 Biographies of Living People resolution. We have amended that resolution to refer to both text and media when considering articles or images of living people: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/Resolution:Media_about_living_people
We believe this amendment serves to clarify our original intent with this resolution, which is to urge the Wikimedia community to act with care when working with all portrayals of living people.
This amended resolution was passed at the November 2013 Board meeting.
For the Board of Trustees,
María
