--- Comment #14 from Kevin Rutherford <[email protected]> --- I would be supportive of the "neweng" thing, but I really don't see there being a possibility of Nebraska ever having a state chapter. The abbreviation of the chapter also runs in line with New York (nyc) and the District of Columbia's (dc) codes, and those are regional entities, not states. The United States is also a large area, so we can support multiple chapters. At the same time, we aren't going to have fifty chapters in the future, as that would create a lot of redundancy and repetition amongst users, as well create areas with a ton of people and others with virtually none at all. If it is confused for "Northeast", then let them click and find out, as we encompass an area of the United States that is referred to as the Northeast, as New York is in the Mid-Atlantic region. Based on this, it is also preferable to have a shorter name when most chapters are "wikimediaXX.com" or something like that. The idea is to make it as short as possible within reason, so that we can utilize it as best as we can. In terms of renaming, I don't see a reason why we'd even want to do so, unless we merged with New York City for some reason or added the Canadian Maritimes, and it is also more of a regional name than NYC or DC, as we used to be called Wikimedia Boston back in the day. In terms of the e-mail service, I suppose that could be the case, and we will explore it later as we have no need for one at this time, since we don't have officers yet. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
