Hi. Parts of this FAQ are now out of date or inaccurate. The whole page could use a read-through, if anyone has time. --[[User:MZMcBride|MZMcBride]] ([[User talk:MZMcBride|talk]]) 01:12, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
== when to use "Wikimedia" and "Wikimedia Foundation" ==
I've heard repeatedly in various contexts that folks don't like it when "Wikimedia" and "Wikimedia Foundation" are conflated or used interchangeably. I made a pass through the FAQs to try to draw a brighter line between the two, but happy if someone else will give it an edit as well. In cases where "Wikimedia" clearly seemed to reference WMF, I changed it to "the Wikimedia Foundation." In cases where it could mean Wikimedia as a movement, I left it unchanged. There were one or two instances where it seemed a bit of a toss up to me. Feel free to have at it if you're inclined. [[User:Mroth|Mroth]] ([[User talk:Mroth|talk]]) 21:14, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

when to use "Wikimedia" and "Wikimedia Foundation"
I've heard repeatedly in various contexts that folks don't like it when "Wikimedia" and "Wikimedia Foundation" are conflated or used interchangeably. I made a pass through the FAQs to try to draw a brighter line between the two, but happy if someone else will give it an edit as well. In cases where "Wikimedia" clearly seemed to reference WMF, I changed it to "the Wikimedia Foundation." In cases where it could mean Wikimedia as a movement, I left it unchanged. There were one or two instances where it seemed a bit of a toss up to me. Feel free to have at it if you're inclined. Mroth (talk) 21:14, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
