Hi!

I am working a bit at Wikimedia Commons, and there, the shutdown of USGOV websites is a huge topic. Has someone a good advice?

"With the very likely shutdown of the Voice of America, I've begun copying what I can to Wikimedia Commons, before they start deleting their various websites. I'd encourage anyone who has a few moments to go to the VOA websites and copy anything that is copyright-free for use here. Especially if you speak another language, there's a trove of good information there that will likely be of interest in the future. I doubt much is getting archived by the current US administration either, making this even more important."

Thanks! (Maybe there is even an online mirror or someone already backing up?)
