German version of court decision blog post:  Done Regards, Tbayer (WMF) (talk) 01:43, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  • FB (targeted to German and Germany):
Das obsiegende Urteil vor einem deutschen Gericht besagt, dass die Wikimedia Foundation Inhalte auf Wikipedia nicht pro-aktiv auf mögliche Rechtsverletzungen hin überprüfen muss. https://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/12/02/legal-victory-german-court-wikimedia-foundation/#German
This is just the (vetted) translation of the blog post's title, i.e. basically the same as the tweet sent out on Monday, but feel free to mention other aspects to consider.
Regards, Tbayer (WMF) (talk) 22:28, 6 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The tweet sent on Monday works well, but I think the English Facebook status summarized it more: "In a legal victory, a German court ruled Wikimedia Foundation need not proactively check for illegal or inaccurate content, based on the fact that content on Wikipedia is created and managed by a global community of volunteer editors and contributors, and not the Wikimedia Foundation." Either works I think. CMonterrey (WMF) (talk) 00:21, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Good point, I checked and indeed we can use the vetted translation for that longer post too, so I went with your suggestion. Regards, Tbayer (WMF) (talk) 01:43, 7 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"fond" is not in the original definition, some might say it's not accurate (there may be doomsayers who would actually prefer to predict a good future ;). Suggest just citing the original definition instead:
  • T: EN Wiktionary #WordoftheDay: doomsayer. One who makes dire predictions about the future; one who predicts doom.
  • f/g: English Wiktionary #WordoftheDay: doomsayer (noun). One who makes dire predictions about the future; one who predicts doom.
