I guess the question is was this a request for input on what the community
thinks of the Interactive Team or the strategy of the discovery team? Or
was it simply a "for your information", we have decided to do X, Y, and Z.
The first is much more preferable to the second, but it appears the second

I just want to note that the question i raised here was about what WMF itself
was doing about paid editing.
I was unhappy to see so much in that statement about what the community
can/should do.
I agree with the Arbcom statement that while it is good that Legal noted that

I am surprised by the notion that WMF middle management is in some way
answerable to the Community. I would have thought that was the least
productive form of engagement between the two sides. The issue is what, if
anything, will happen to the tools that the contributors want and need to
carry on
Rogol,
Good to hear from you.

Rogol, I'd like to hear more about what you mean here, specifically in
This is excellent news! I am particularly excited by the idea of a better
suite of blocking tools, which will hopefully save admins from playing a
game of whack-a-mole with particularly tenacious vandals and harassers.
Cheers,

GorillaWarfare,
Thank you for the statement.
Perhaps you and your colleagues at Arbcom could explain your current
efforts against COI editing when evidence of such activity is brought to
your attention in private (in alignment with current ENWP Arbcom guidance),

Hi Anna,
Outside of the scope of this thread, I'd be glad to have a conversation
about WMF-community communication in general. May I suggest making that a
subject for an office hour at some future time? We'll likely need more than
a single office hour to untangle all of the threads and make sure t
Speaking of communications, it would help if I would practice what I
preach. Let me reword one problematic sentence: "Perhaps this could be the
start of a "Community-WMF Communications office hour that could happen on a
quarterly basis." Sorry for the extra email to fix that.
I'm not sure that one
These are all very nice sentiments. But they're phrased in very vague ways.
Is there anywhere we can see the actual concrete plan for the use of these

Hello, everyone.
Following Bodhisattwa's request[1], I have added an upload feature to the

Today I was reading in the (international) news about websites with
knowledge on the topic of climate change disappear from the internet as
result of the Trump administration. The second thing I read is that before
something can be published about this topic, the government needs to
approve this.
