Richard, Isn't the purpose of this mailing list to discuss topics related to the movement? I believe that when a community's decision to use movement resources affects other communities and affiliates, as well as the movement's vision, the movement and the foundation should speak out. Otherwise,

Itzik, I think what Farah published informing the global community is informative and speaks for itself. The action taken by the majority of the Arabic Wikipedia community doesn't disrespect the movement. Actually, It comes as an emphasis to the global worry for the rising humanitarian crisis

This seems interesting at best when you provide links to articles in the Arabic statement and did not do so at the translated statement in English. The intention seems more interesting when there are no discussions and/or something similar to a media pack/explanation note for an act of this size.
