== "to allow third-party users to freely reuse the data available, unlike other Wikimedia projects." == |
|||
I think we should be a bit more careful with the use of the word "freely". Technically all the [[:wikidata:Q284742|Creative Commons]] licenses are considered "free" content licenses, despite the attribution requirement, so I don't think it is good to say "unlike". |
|||
I'm not sure if there's a better wording, though. What is true is that CC-0 is less restrictive than the other licenses.--[[User:Jasper Deng|Jasper Deng]] ([[User talk:Jasper Deng|talk]]) 07:15, 4 April 2017 (UTC) |

== "Labs" rebranding == |
|||
The project formerly known as Wikimedia Labs has been rebranded as Wikimedia Cloud Services. I would suggest the following replacement for the current Wikimedia Labs section: |

Wikimedia Cloud Services (WMCS) is a flexible computing ecosystem built on [[w:OpenStack|OpenStack]], [[w:Oracle Grid Engine|GridEngine]], and [[w:Kubernetes|Kubernetes]]. The project empowers technical contribution to the Wikimedia software world.

Wikitech is a site for internal technical documentation of Wikimedia infrastructure, and it is connected with the Wikimedia Cloud Services project. |

== "Freely re-use" and Wikidata == |
|||
I think one could mistakenly infer that the rest of our content is ''not'' free from that statement, which is not true. The problem I guess is that all of our content is free, but some is more free than others. |
|||
:I changed that prose to "freely reuse with no restrictions", which is still not ideal at conveying that our other content can also be reused, but it is at least a step in the right direction. --[[User:Deskana (WMF)|Deskana (WMF)]] ([[User talk:Deskana (WMF)|talk]]) 11:16, 31 July 2018 (UTC) |
