For members, I'm not aware of any legal restrictions on the age of members and I don't see any advantage in introducing one. Can anyone think of any good reasons to restrict age? For me, if someone has the nouse to set up an account on wikimedia and participate, i think they would be able to constructuvely participate in the chapter and so should be welcomed in.
What do others think?
Wouldn't under 16s trigger more data protection issues?
Not that I know of. Someone on the board was researching data protection requirements, they should investigate this as well.
I am also unaware of any additional requirements for under-16's personal information under the DPA.
