If the Wishlist Survey 2022 goes on, my proposal will be simple: make the first
50 wishes. We have money. We need it. And we are not doing essential things.
Also, solving platform issues shouldn't be something to vote on. I don't
understand why we have to vote to have solutions to even basic
I agree with the issues here, but I don't think that the solution should
be to get rid of the wishlist. Instead, it really should be expanded so
it can handle many more of the wishes, since there are many good ones
that keep getting proposed but just don't get enough votes to be in the
top
The Stewards Wikimedia User Group is a small group of people doing some
boring tasks.
Thanks for all the works you do and I found the report very interesting.

running require a global popularity vote? The way how the various problems on
Commons are (not!) handled by WMF and others is not acceptable anymore. We
don't need a poll to detect that! It's not a wish we have, it's
The wishlist has reached the end of useful life, I think before we go down
that track again we have to look hard at what purpose it serves and what
other parts of the whole IT/programming area needs to be consider. To do
that put the wish list on hold, clear the backlog of phabricator tickets
and
I'm not debating your note. It is very valid that we lack proper support
for multimedia stack. I myself wrote a detailed rant on how broken it is

- Fixing something like this takes time, you need to assign the budget for
it (which means it has to be done during the annual
we have to vote for regular maintenance and support for essential functions
like uploading files which is the core mission of Wikimedia Commons
