One of my main worries is that our content being reused somewhere else means that we're losing our ability to engage new contributors, which in the long runt could threaten the projects, at the same time as no one else is stepping up to do our job because the traffic is still going to our content – just not to us. There's a tradeoff between readability and editability, especially on the small screen. Anyone not concerned with editing will have a head start when it comes to presenting the information in a less cluttered way, which makes it easier to read and the experience more enjoyable. //Johan Jönsson -- _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe>
