    Dear Andrea,

    It does not give a good impression if your first and only message to an
    email list is a cross-posted advertisement that does not make any effort
    to clarify the relationship to the topic of the list. We don't usually
    have such calls here (as opposed to other lists, where you have many
    messages of this type every day). If you have a relevant message for the
    Wikidata community, please take your time to write a personalised email
    that clarifies why people should be interested.


Indeed. I am putting people who do this on moderation.

Off-topic: would it make sense to have someone else be in charge of this? I know you are highly efficient, it seems an odd side-job for a software product owner to also moderate the community mailing list ;-) I'd rather have you focus on development and deployment, where nobody else can help out.

Cheers,

Markus
