I don't see how that would be an issue.  Notability is not a foundation
policy, it's a community guideline that was enacted by editors of the
English Wikipedia.  Other projects within the WMF family would not
necessarily be subject to the same standards, in the same way that the
Spanish Wikipedia does not allow fair use images while the English Wikipedia
does.
