There is a red link in this section, please change it to correct link to Privacy policy, thanks. Ата ^(talk) 17:09, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Ата: Thank you for pointing this out - I have gone ahead and fixed it. --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:39, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Policy:Privacy policy/Frequently asked questions has an interwiki link to w:en:Wikipedia:Username_policy, which is strange. Is it intended? Ата ^(talk) 17:11, 14 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Ата, can you elaborate on what you find odd? The linking to that specific page, the formatting of the link, or something else? Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:40, 16 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

I find it weird that 1 language button on top of the page links to that specific page. Privacy policy FAQs ≠ enwiki username policy. Ата ^(talk) 15:29, 18 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Fixed! It was a mis-ordered link. Thanks! Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 02:37, 19 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

There is a privacy related discussion on en.wiki; you can read the discussion and give advice here. Cremastra (talk) 13:11, 29 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please make Политика конфиденциальности a redirect to Policy:Privacy policy/ru. colt_browning (talk) 13:11, 23 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Colt browning: That has been fixed. However, if that link is actively used anywhere - please let me know and we may be able to update its usage. Thank you! --Gregory Varnum (Wikimedia Foundation) [he/him] (talk) 20:22, 6 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello. Can people under 13 edit Wikipedia? Wimajo15 (talk) 08:17, 26 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Wimajo15: Hello, the term of use and the privacy policy don't prevent children from editing Wikipedia. However, if you are a younger user, it is recommended reading the Guidance for younger editors and the Staying safe on Wikimedia as a young person page before editing. Happy editing! SCP-2000 (talk) 09:22, 26 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. How is it that Wikimedia servers are located in the USA, but children are allowed to edit? Why is Wikimedia not covered by COPPA? Wimajo15 (talk) 15:19, 3 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Wimajo15: See the 'Are websites and online services operated by nonprofit organizations subject to the Rule?' section of the FAQ by the FTC (under 'B. COPPA Enforcement') --Nintendofan885^{T&Cs apply} 17:50, 20 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
