Hi,
Philipe (WMF head of reader relations) recently reverted a :en geonotice added by Deryck Chan. This appears to run counter to the previous position held by the WMF that they leave the decisions to the Wikipedia community and would not interfere (presumably unless there was a legal issue).
Raising on this email list in consideration of previous debate on this topic when the chapter wanted to use a geonotice to encourage applications from our Wikimedia UK community for the WMUK CEO position and as most people will not follow WP:GN.
