> Wikipedia and Wikimedia are a movement, a movement of open/free
> information and we should have spokespeople who can explain why open/free
> information is our desire and the desire of many people in the world. We as
> Wikimedia can't exist without open/free information and we should and must
> explain that to politicians and other organizations. Our goals are limited
> by the legal bounders, and as Wikimedia is an important movement in our
> society we should make our voice been heard to make us able to reach our
> goals in a larger way.

> This is something that should be done by the European chapters and other

> certainly we can't do this alone.) Wikimedia stands for collaboration, that
> is what we need here, and it is good to see this is recognized by several
> chapters and Wikimedians.
