With 11 days remaining in August, I'd like to remind everyone that Wikimedia-l's guidelines[0] ask that subscribers keep their post count below at most 30 per month. This guideline exists to help curb the temptation to weigh in on absolutely every point raised, turning what could otherwise be a carefully considered debate into a rapid-fire argument. (If that's what you're looking for, fear not—I'm sure IRC[1] has you covered.)
I know that this month has seen a few contentious topics, but if you see yourself nearing 30 posts (Erik Zachte's ScanMail tool[2] is very helpful, here), perhaps it's worth sparing a moment for pause before clicking "reply." In fact, that's probably worth doing even if you aren't topping the charts. Less is sometimes more. Thanks for your attention, Austin [0] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l [1] https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC/Channels [2] http://www.infodisiac.com/Wikipedia/ScanMail/Wikimedia-l.html _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
