This is a valid concern, though it should be noted that the share of Wikimedia wikis in training [[large language models]] is often overestimated (see [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia_Signpost/2025-06-24/Recent_research|last week's ''Signpost'' issue]]).

Lastly, not all the issues raised by the ''Frankfurter Allgemeine'' team were found to be valid; a community member pointed out, for example, that notwithstanding the newspaper's claim, the [[A99 road]] really [https://explore.osmaps.com/pin?lat=58.63993&lon=-3.06723&zoom=15.342&style=Standard&type=2d does continue] past the point where it meets the [[A836]] and leads all the way to the place where the ferry to [[Burwick, Orkney|Burwick]] departs in the summer months.
