There is a saying that it's much easier to change yourself than to change
others. I strongly believe that this applies here.

I want to encourage people to feel comfortable with posting in-scope and
civil emails to WMF mailing lists, but my personal opinion is that the
number of reminders is sometimes excessive and the related costs are
