Slate France article
edithttps://www.slate.fr/story/107927/bassel-khartabil-prisonnier-syrien-internet in French contains info not currently in the article, eg about months before detention and projects subject has been involved in, in case anyone wants to go through and add new stuff. I might later from an autotranslation if nobody else gets to it. Mike Linksvayer (talk) 05:24, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, did this happen? We can get some friends to help, and I think there is an english version of that article. Jon Phillips (talk) 04:22, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- Not sure, probably worth reading the Slate.fr story again closely and seeing if there's still anything missing from the article. There's a translation of the story at http://jilliancyork.com/2015/10/16/bassel-khartabil-syrian-prisoner-who-lives-and-risks-dying-for-a-free-internet/ Mike Linksvayer (talk) 06:08, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
Russian version of the article nominated for deletion
editru:Википедия:К_удалению/25_ноября_2015#Хартабил, Бассел. The nominator says neither the Russian version nor this English one show notability according to Russian Wikipedia policies. --AVRS (talk) 22:53, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
- Well, looks like it was deleted. It might be taken naively as a reflection on Russian policy specifically. But more generally it points out how "notability" is a product of "community consensus", also known as "political manipulation", which is true too on this WP (even if less so, perhaps). FeatherPluma (talk) 23:22, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- This article should be resubmitted in Russian. It makes sense that it would be deleted because it is sensitive Syrian topic in Russia. SO the deletion happened when low activity Jon Phillips (talk) 04:23, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia userpage
editI could not find anywhere his username on Wikimedia projects. Does anyone know? NMaia (talk) 02:53, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
- Anonymous edits and aliases used because of sensitive subjects in Syria that mean life and death Jon Phillips (talk) 04:24, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Jon Phillips: Thanks a lot for the reply. Do you have sources talking about that? ~★ nmaia d 10:37, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- @NMaia: Jon Phillips was a longtime friend of Bassel's and the founding organizer of the Free Bassel campaign. The Guardian, CBC, and Creative Commons, frequently quote and cite Jon as an important source with respect to Bassel's work and his particular involvement with Wikipedia and the Creative Commons. Despite our Wikipedia policies regarding verifiability, you could not have a better source; it's very likely that reliable publication will use Jon's statement here as a trusted fact in any of their stories.
