I agree. Commons is managed by people who knows nothing of copyright and act in
a dizzy and confused way.

Lately we had lot of problems with some german users that deleted all the
italian images that were PD for a specific comma of the italian copryight law,
just because with German law those images would have been copyrighted... totally
forgetting that as long as they are PD in the origin country, they are PD
everywhere.

Moreover on Commons it's not strange to have files deleted without delinking, or
without any advice; sometimes happens that a template image is deleted and we
have hundreds of broken links all at once.

Commons need a lawyer. And some damn good admins, not the bunch of incompetent
people (with due exceptions, of course, but not enough) that are deciding
important matters right now as you read.

Free it.wikinews!

(note: image used on news sites in italy have a special law, so while they could
not be license free for Commons, they could be legal for news sites. So a local
upload is NEEDED)

Support. Allowing local updates can increase the richness of it.wikinews content

actually, this is not a bug but a (missing) feature :-) I think that many (if
not most) pieces of news have local interest, so putting relevant images on
commons is overkill.

Set.
