[Foundation-l] Wikimedia mouvement

[Florence Devouard]

Milos probably has the beginning of an answer in citing sources such as 
Wikizine or the Wikipedia Weekly. Those would be totally interesting to 
cite or refer to. There are other initiatives that would be nice to 
mention as well.

I'd say that this should probably not be the website of Wikieducator, 
but there is probably nothing wrong in citing them or even writing a 
page about them.

A key word is probably "wikimedia". Wikimedia is a trademark, and those 
who are allowed to use it are probably those who should be in charge of 
this site. This include chapters and Foundation, but not wikieducator.
