Pine, Has there been a recent substantial discussion by the community surrounding promotional/biased editting paid or otherwise, which had an outcome resulting in a specific request for assistance or increased action by the WMF?
If there hasn't, I do not see grounds for you to be expecting an official response from Legal to a list whose conversation has for the most part consisted of about 6 people? Many others, I am sure, would rightly complain if the Foundation unilaterally made decisions in this area. But please be realistic, this is a coffee table discussion. The views expressed here are valid but the right thing to do would be to further the conversation on wiki and have a proper community conversation. We have mechanisms exactly for this kind of thing. Lets actually use them.
