The fact that you don't understand, don't agree with, or don't like someone doesn't justify to be rude. I think this kind of remark has no way to be constructive. Not only it cannot help reaching a consensus, but it could be offending and start a dispute. Something is happening in Wikipedia that is new and rare in the history of mankind: community decisions through global consensus at a huge scale. We have the responsibility to make this model work, because I think it is seen, and will be seen more and more in this 21st century, as a proof-experiment of whether humans can govern themselves without the traditional authoritarian leadership, at least under certain conditions. Our discussions in this mailing-list must be succesful, and this means keeping the tolerance and patience high and the agressivity low. For the same reason, it is my opinion that we must be bold about keeping the power of decisions in the hands of the community. Our goal is one of the noblest I have ever felt with my mind: let's forget the anger and other futile acts of our egos, and keep focused on what is at stake. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJMD87cAAoJEHCAuDvx9Z6LhCMH/1sxF5MxCuPkV/0MXMEf1+Nu B1r2Y5d574u1xW1j3v7KW7yCssyVJtJ9v18A0jOMQD71Xp+obtLLhprUi8WDnMLT lAJrNE2LyZa8mHPfPfmFOwKt44wBJyZj8kKL8r6cuC5jEOTP6XsxeiWjCfhGz/2p oecRv61UCpHTF3+Q6ww6rExFpH8nT61LU7cscuuoAFlbmUVk4nVObHTy4en0Wwad KDHP/r+mn2+hleF+lvaAbt3zuJbGtsZDzYlUMCu4i3gHYSGZ9fkOP3b6ZfIVN290 s5ql58mSknS6y8HkxgipzsHkL5ajeaYlGGMed24koA0qFhFqEK8H5U720561Xc0= =q/En -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
