Issues and tasks
[edit]Disadvantages of having strict policies
[edit]A disadvantage of having strict policy is editors often stop editing if they are scolded and pointed towards policy. In June-July 3 editors stopped editing for this reason. For small Wikipedias it is an issue.
Policies to be created
[edit]In previous meet-ups and during the Kannada Wikipedians meet-up on 21 June, User:Pavanaja made a list of policies which need to be created: Content policies
- Neutral point of view
- No Original Research
- Verifiability
June 21 Kannada Wikipedia meetup
- Biography of living persons
- Notability
- Conflict of Interest
- Article title
- Image policy
- Fair use policy (This will include maximum image size eg. 1000px*1000px limit)
- Copyrighted images (similar to Fair use)
- Kannada Wikipedians are discussing if this can be made a policy: images without EXIF data will be deleted
- Deletion policy
- Blocking policy
