Viquimarató 35 hores a la Fundació Miró (abril 2013)
35-hour edit-a-thon at Miró Foundation (April 2013)

Hola, gràcies a la teva firma donant suport a la nostra associació. El passat dia 5 de juny Amical Wikimedia (Associació Amical Viquipèdia) va ser reconeguda pel Consell d'Administració de la Fundació Wikimedia com a Organització Temàtica. Pots veure el comunicat de l'associació en català aquí o el comunicat de la WMF en anglès aquí. Per a la nostra associació és una fita molt important, portàvem 5 anys demanant ésser un organisme oficial. Nosaltres continuarem la nostra tasca de promoció al carrer i a les institucions de la Viquipèdia i els seus projectes germans arreu dels territoris de parla catalana.

Hello, thanks for your signature giving support to our association. Last 5th of June Amical Wikimedia (Associació Amical Viquipèdia) was recognised by the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees as a Thematic Organization. You can read the news bulletin of our association in Catalan here or the WMF's bulletin in English here. For our association, this is a very important achievement: we have been pursuing the official recognition for the last 5 years. We are going to continue the task of promoting Wikipedia and its sister projects all around the Catalan-speaking regions.

Moltes gràcies, Thank you --Davidpar (talk) 14:45, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

FOP and jurisprudence

Hi, it was nice to meet you. :-) I've added your paper to Italian cultural heritage on the Wikimedia projects.

I was wondering if you saw some of the following discussions on claims by museums etc., where there is a certain confusion about which kind of right was at play (copyright or the pseudo-copyright for simple photos?) and whether certain cases were similar enough to be a precedent for each other (especially REM for Prado).

• Image change request from the Prado Museum - Request for community input
• commons:Commons:Village pump/Copyright/Archive/2016/06#Info about Reiss-Engelhorn Museum (REM) of the City of Mannheim v. Wikimedia Foundation re commons:Category:Images subject to Reiss Engelhorn Museum lawsuit
• wmfblog:2015/11/23/lawsuit-public-domain-art/ and wmfblog:2016/07/24/perspective-change-wikimedia-glam/ (the latter was also triggered by some dissatisfaction over the community's apparent inflexibility, though it's not said explicitly)

I think the WMF can't speak clearly on all this because they have ongoing cases, but it would be good to have some better insight than USA wikimedians interpreting German law through Google Translate. I don't know if the Swedish case is proceeding at all. --Nemo 08:51, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
