Yes, there are some, but do you mean for websites in general or for 
Wikipedia specifically? Are Italian texts enough?
I've linked only a statement by Rodotà before because I can't imagine a 
more authoritative one now (I'm open to suggestions), but WMI is now 
asking more thorough analysis to legal experts.
