Thank you for your input. We realise that the original proposed text of the policy would not have been at all sufficient to protect fans' privacy and identity. We fully acknowledge that it was not in line with what fandom would have expected from Fanlore and our commitment to protecting fans' identities, and we sincerely apologise for this.

We will take all of the concerns expressed on board and work to produce a policy that is much more robust in protecting fans, and will share the next version for feedback as soon as we are able.
