They have some lisenceing problems. Mostly in the form of misslabled stuff
ok, but that can be fixed.
Problem is that due to it's lower traffic people are less likely to notice the problem. Still the people there do seem to react fairly fast when you point stuff out to them. Pitty about the main page vandalism incerdent.
Incerdently does anyone know how to contact the ukranian wikipedia people? The images on: http://uk.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stauromedusae are copyvios. I tried to contact an admin there who has the EN:3 userbox but nothing has happened. They don't have a embasy.
Stop wikis using stuff that isnt on commons.
Would solve the fair use problem but not really practicle unless commons is prepared to give admin powers to any en (or pretty much any language) admin who requests it. Certianly commons only for projects below a certian size is tempting and it would probably expand commons further as a media source.
They do have an embassy - when I got a visa it was up in Notting Hill.
They don't on meta which makes it a bit hard to contact them
