@Matthew, thanks for that detailed explanation! That is very interesting and
includes a lot of information I didn't know. I am not against using the central
notice for this purpose, but I just don't think it has much effect in the
current implementation. In this specific case, leading the user
@Nemo, This is exactly what I was hoping to get from the Chapters
Association - a way to exchange ideas with other chapters about how to
inform more local Wikipedia editors about WMNL, and secondly, ask them
to join the chapter. The group of people who read the Dutch Village

@Sue, I understand the idea behind doing this and applaud the idea -

Dj pundit,
I second your skepticism. Especially since most Dutch Wikipedians have no idea
what WMNL is, according to a survey. It only follows that they would therefore

Just quickly while I walk down the street: I don't think the goal is
necessarily to get input from chapters members -- as you say, the best
avenue for those people to give input on chapter plans is probably simply

Hi Tilman,
Unfortunately it seems that many users experience the FDC as most away from
their bed and saw the notice in English what triggered the users to write their
annoyance down. The current load of feedback is indeed on that page, and I
