The nub of the matter is that such an approach should be a two-way street. There is no evidence that the filter-pushing lobby is making even the most rudimentary good-faith effort at listening what the other side is telling them. Just doing a lot of hand-waving and misdirection. Case in point, ditching the idea of a "category based filtering scheme" as if that particular bit was what people were opposing. Not even close. There is still an echo chamber aspect to the people who are driving filters. -- -- Jussi-Ville Heiskanen, ~ [[User:Cimon Avaro]] _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
