Re: [Wikimedia-GH] Represent us at WMCON 2017 in Berlin

Rex, I am a bit surprise by some of your utterances. When have there ever been a situation whereby a decision has been made by the entire community? Are you telling me that you are not aware or you haven't been part of a situation whereby a decision has been taken by a select membership of the

Re: [Wikimedia-GH] Represent us at WMCON 2017 in Berlin

Hello Rex, if I may intrude, I don't really get why you are making a big issue of what is past and gone. If something wasn't done right and it is now being corrected, why keep bringing up what is past and gone. I mean it's not like Felix misrepresented the community. If you knew what Felix did was

You see, That is the issue. The conversation you pull below are from how many members of the community? Were the comments shared as a final say on the part of the community? When did one, two or three members of the community's personal recommendations start to represent the whole community? In

Re: [Wikimedia-GH] Represent us at WMCON 2017 in Berlin
