I thought the point was not that they had pizza stained t-shirts, but rather that the Wikipedian who was interviewed (Kevin) was explicitly dividing his kin into those who wear such stained shorts, and those who dress in a 'chill' way, which as Mr McBride explains, means 'cool and hip'. >>these [i.e. volunteers wearing hoodies] are the people most likely to make >>a meaningful difference to open knowledge within the Wikimedia movement. I don't see what the 'hoodie' bit has to do with it. I associate 'hoodies' with people who want to remain anonymous, possibly to escape the attention of police, government agents or other responsible members of the enforcement community charged with keeping the world safe from terrorism or violence. Why would such people make a meaningful difference to open knowledge within the Wikimedia movement? I'm puzzled. , E _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe> ----- No virus found in this message.
