I suppose that you know that WMF did PR research if you claim that it
will be useful for that purpose. If so, please refer to it. If not,
it's just about dilettantism, as usual.

The only useful PR action for right-wing media was Jimmy's purging of
artworks depicting nude women [1]. But, again, I didn't see any PR
analysis which told to Jimmy that it is right thing to do.
