Sorry I have been away from things very busy with
college work and that and
missed out on what was going on. From my point of view the CRB checks would
then have to be brought in if we had under 16's. Although like wikipedia
where you can sign up at any age there is no physical contact with the other
users unless there is wikimania or something and even then it is tightly
organised. Just a thought anyway.
Someone is researching CRBs, hopefully they'll be able to clear this
up. I spoke to someone at the charity commission about it and the
physical contact requirements only apply if you are alone with
children, that should never be the case at wikimania or AGMs, they are
pretty public events. (Also, Wikimania is a WMF event, so I don't
think WM UK would be liable for any of it.)
