This is great. The fact that Wikipedia is protesting the removal of free speech is an endeavor that more companies need to do! I applaud them for standing strong and not bending over to the Italian gov't.

It's clear that this law shouldn't be passed in its present form, it would kill free speech in Italy...

Make sure it only contains primary documents and it will be perfect. No need for the 20-30% of misinformation Wikipedia includes.
