no, the fair use media repository will be independant for each language. The reason being
each project might take a different stance on it.
Remember that using fair use image is here to support information, but it is not our goal
to provide content with restricted use. We should avoid it whenever necessary

hi,
Just a "newbye" question.
Is the "Upload fair use media" repository unique for all language wiki
or is there One repository per language.
More simple (sorry i lack real english practice) : if I want to use a
"fair use media" presents into en.wikinews, do I need to copy/paste the
stuff in the french realm or do I have a direct link from the froggy
(choose an another) wikinews to the english wikinews ????
I love commons for that reason : one repository for ALL wikis. (don't
love border or ghetto sorry :)

Le 19 mai 05, � 00:27, Erik Moeller a �crit :
With the agreement of the Board, I have enabled local
uploads on the
English edition of Wikinews.
I ask other language editions that are interested in fair use to
formulate a similar whitelist policy for cases in which fair use
should be allowed. The emphasis is on *whitelist* - any case not
covered by the policy should be quickly deleted.
Once a policy is developed, please report it on foundation-l or
wikinews-l to move forward with enabling local uploads. A brief
summary of your policy in English would be very helpful.
For reference, the English fair use policy is at:
http://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Fair_use
As before, the Wikimedia Commons should be used for any free content
media.
All best,
Erik
