Dear all,

Some discussion about the Baidu Baike copy the content from Wikipedia is now on 
Chinese Wikipedia Village Pump.

Some Baidu user copy a lot of content from Wikipedia, should them be prosecuted?

A user suggest that the Wikimedia Foundation prosecute the Baidu company and 
request for remove or a large amount of money (donate to Wikimedia Foundation), 
and have a advertisment on at least 10 newspaper/radio/TV for saying sorry to 
Wikipedia.

About Baidu Baike

Some wikipedian said in China law, no clear solution can be make. Also, some 
people advice the WMF to use the 
http://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:%E7%99%BE%E5%BA%A6%E7%99%BE%E7%A7%91%E5%B0%8D%E7%B6%AD%E5%9F%BA%E7%99%BE%E7%A7%91%E7%9A%84%E4%BE%B5%E6%AC%8A/%E5%88%97%E8%A1%A8 [list]
 to prosecute or take action to Baidu company & Baidu Baike editor. I give a 
comment that send a wikipedian-signed letter to Baidu and request them to take 
action. Someone suggest that Wikimedia Taiwan to talk with the related 
organization and try to solve the problem.

3. Talk about the "Is it possible to fund the Wikimedia China?"

Thank you for your attention.
