wikis, although we can always bend the rules and wait to see if they
complain.
This sounds like a prime reason to forbid (or strongly discourage)
Wikipedia editors from placing ICRA labels on any Wikipedia pages.
No editor should be taking actions that gratuitously expose the
project to legal threats with so very little benefit for the
project's goals.
