Then notices just on Main Pages? I don't think that a random user from search engines is interested in our governing. Not to say that if someone is interested in Wiki*p*edia governing, may be introduced into the whole process after two or three pages, starting from [[Wikipedia]] in any language. As an account owner on LiveJournal, but without any activity, I am getting emails which inform me about the process of their elections. However, I don't remember that I saw that online (although I am very rarely there). I have no precise idea how, but it is obvious that we need to lower amount of our own advertising to random users. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
