Hi James and All, This tread has perhaps sorted all the questions from James. One thing is for sure, the "situational nature" of handling issues on WE may not be helpful to all of us in the long run. Having a standing council always helps as we will all (through participatory democracy) decide o

I hope that this matter will be speedily addressed once the elected council takes effect. It is my experience that trad talk pages do in fact give an indication of what thread has been added to, because alerts come through with detail including which section has been edited. This is much more than

Dear All, Exactly. We need an elected Council such that these decisions can be made in a democratic manner. Till now we were functioning in a 'situational - as the need arose' manner - we needed a Board of some sort - so an Interim Advisory Board was created; some people had to have admin rights
