I just may say that I don't remember when I heard for the Knol last
time.

Alright, but what about the case of a Wiki where there are perhaps 3
active users, and the administrator is imposing their will? It is the

This problem of one or two strong-willed admins enforcing their will
over others is not an uncommon problem at smaller Wikis. In many
cases, uncommon or strange orthographies, nonstandard dialects, or
strange editing rules have been enforced; people who complain are
often ignored and referred back

Who are you? and Why you asking me such a thing??
Honestly, I don't care who is blocked in a local project, and it's beyond of
my concern.
Plus, truly puzzling, your interest of my activity. Purpose? Explain.

Hoi,
My opinion is that the CC-by-sa has always been the right license. The GFDL
served us well and I am really grateful to the FSF that they were so
gracious to allow us to move over to the CC-by-sa. The CC-by-sa is a
different license and it was the accepted wisdom that CC-by-sa material
could be

The policies of the English language Wikipedia have evolved over many years

It means global to the English Wikipedia, someone should probably change
