[Commons-l] Proposal for an allrightsreserved.wikimedia.org website

[Gnangarra]

Why would these images even need a wiki, these images are the property of
the foundation if they are such a big concern to Commons Community, (I've
been on common for a few years and was not aware of real concerns about
those images) then the Foundation should address the issue.

Why start a "project" unless the project has scope for media outside of what
can be handled internally by Foundation Office staff
