All of this is quite true. Discuss, don't tell. However: so far it hasn't even gotten to "talking to". It's just been noting that this is a blatant violation of NPOV and is highly problematic. And ultimately, NPOV is non-negotiable if the current contributors to ace:wp want it to stay a Wikimedia project. Do you have a problem with even noting this? Do you dispute this? - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
