be used and who ought to have final responsibility for the nature of
the content of such geographically related notices.
As far as I know, those watchlist geonotices on the English Wikipedia
are something run by the English Wikipedia community. It's not related
to CentralNotice or the Wikimedia Foundation, so they don't really
determine the guidelines for its use -- enwiki's community does.
