There is a red link in [[Policy:Privacy policy/Frequently asked questions#There is outdated or inaccurate information about me in a Wikipedia article!

This is confusing. There are two different things could be meant by this paragraph |
|||
[[Policy:Privacy policy/Frequently asked questions]] has an interwiki link to [[w:en:Wikipedia:Username_policy]], which is strange. Is it intended?

30 days doesn't enter into it, though 180 days is wildly optimistic (I have had to log in thirce today alone). |

What's the justification for placing every account creation (including username, which might be personally identifiable) in publicly available logs?

The use of CDN sites for script delivery (I.e. jQuery from Google CDN, yes, I know it is available on WMF projects, but this concerns use from toolserver.org!) is not explicitly forbidden. This should be clarified. Ok, not ok? --[[User:Dschwen|Dschwen]] ([[User talk:Dschwen|talk]]) 19:41, 8 February 2013 (UTC) |
