Hoi,
You are entitled to an opinion and you may voice it and so am I. The
Wikimedia Foundation is not a democracy and neither is our movement. This
was done with deliberation. At best our movement is represented in the
board and through its chapters. In essence the main function of the WMF is

Gerard, you assume that "my wikipedia" is the only project I participate
in? Let me assure you this is not the case. On the contrary, the last few
years I mostly contributed to Wikidata and recently - a massive Wiktionary
lexeme import, and very little to Wikipedia.
That said, I think removing

The wishlist of course accepts wishes in any language, but in order to make
it to the accepted zone a wish must have several dozens supporters, which

Hoi,
The disappointing you show and the grotesque conclusions are imho based in
a sense of entitlement. You had it your way for so long and they are now
robbing you from your cookies... It is easy to "forget" that a program
where a majority decides what is on a "community wish list" favours the

Thank you for writing this; I completely agree.
I've long thought the WMF should put more resources into community wishes, not
less.
I do hope this will be reconsidered.
Perhaps there could be more wishes granted to non-Wikimedia projects, while

Ilana, restricting wishlist to non-Wikipedia this year is a very sad news.
