Just noting in passing that there is another reason that some people aren't participating in public discussion of this matter: we do not want to negatively impact the safety of the editors who've been dragged into this case, or any other Wikimedian in India for that matter. It is often difficult for people who have lived their lives in the relatively open and free societies of North America and Europe to understand how risky it is for people in many other parts of the world to take the leap in participating in the dissemination of free knowledge; they never know which edit can create a real-world problem for them. It is not a hypothetical for thousands of Wikimedians from non-Western countries; in fact, the article mentioned above illustrates that it can happen in our own societies.

#How much money does the Wikimedia Foundation send to the editor community in India? deserves some clarification especially given the piece is written like it's for a broad audience. It reads like WMF directly pays editors. Nardog (talk) 11:38, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Apart from the ongoing DHC cases, the Indian government, as in Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, has recently decided to comment on WP/WMF. [1] Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 12:33, 6 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
