A Conversation for Protest Against BBC Policy Over Iraq

old Petition for Greater Freedom, 100+ signatures

I don't want to cause competition, but there was an old "Petition for Greater Freedom on h2g2" A544943 that had about 140 or 150 signatures on it. I've gotten a few people to sign it since this Iraq policy went into effect, but now I wonder how we could merge our efforts. Could we give links to each other? They're not exactly petitions for the same thing, since the Petition for Greater Freedom talks about moderation of foreign languages and the ability to post graphics on h2g2 entries. But we could increase interest in both of them by giving links to each other.

I'll post a link to yours right now. If you don't want to link back to the other one, that's okay.

Thanks,
Deidzoeb

Yes, please add my name. In case the wording of the petition changes over time, here's the part with which I agree:

"The BBC have banned talking about the situation in Iraq on H2G2. If you believe this is censorship and takes away your freedom of speech, please post a message in the Petition For The Right Of Free Speech About Iraq thread."

Thanks,
Deidzoeb
