Very disappointing that the new Government's Flickr photos, such as this one on the "number10gov" account, are not using an open licence (it's CC by-nc-nd):

We are delighted to announce that for the next 24 hours, the article "Empire of the Sultans" will be featured as "Today's Featured Article" on the English Wikipedia. This is the highest recognition a Wikipedia article can achieve. It marks the second Featured Article resulting from the Khalili Foundation and Wikimedia UK partnership, following the success of “Hajj: Journey to the Heart of Islam.” This accomplishment highlights our ongoing commitment to sharing knowledge and promoting cultural understanding.

Feminist Magazine #SpareRib published a pattern for a handknitted jumper in 1982. As volunteer Becky knitted one up for our collection, the more there was to learn about the jumper & its position in the history of knitting & feminism 🧶🪡
