IMO this is based on local community consensus. It is not a global policy.

Hello, I have a question: is it legal and valid for Wikipedia communities put promotion links to their Facebook pages on public space as Main Page or Sitenotice?
I see many of Wikimedia projects doing this, as Indonesia Wikipedia, Arabic Wikipedia, etc... Their Facebooks page also have blue checkmark of Facebook as verified.
All what I concern is: Facebook is a commerical website, we put a link as "official" to them, will it same with Wikipedia biased for Facebook and violated the NPOV policy? And in finally: is it OK if other projects can do that? Vietnamese Wikipedia also have a discussion about sitenotice promotion to Facebook at < https://vi.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Th%E1%BA%A3o_lu%E1% BA%ADn/Qu%E1%BA%A3ng_b%C3%A1_trang_Facebook_%22Wikipedia_ ti%E1%BA%BFng_Vi%E1%BB%87t%22
. If this is OK, I think we have no reason to reject it.
Thank you!
