Hi all,
Yes, I'm responsible for the Angelou article.
I agree with Ryan that the wiki etiquette board was not helpful in many
situations largely because people who regularly patrol the board are often
people formerly brought to the board with issues about civility. While the
average editor stays away from this area. So often the discussions are less
policy on a
global community where cultural norms differ at great deal. So, we need to
be careful that an attempt to assist one group of users does not make it
harder for other groups of people who are also under represented on
Wikipedia English.
