Your quoting makes it sound like I'm calling usability and strategy wiki niche interest. Here is what I actually wrote: "My leading hypothesis were either that the staff was incredibly overloaded with new initiatives like usability and strategywiki that there simply hasn't been time to even make a simple configuration change; ghat WMF's priorities have become so warped due to petitioning by niche interests that it can't complete a simple request for its largest project, or that the" In bullet point form, my theories were: (1) Tech staff is so overloaded with new work from usability, etc. that they can't make a small configuration change for enwp or an enwp test. No matter how important these new initiatives are, if they are overburdening the staff this greatly than we have bitten off more than we can chew. (2) That WMF no longer cares about EnWP because advocates for other projects post almost daily on foundation-l while ENWP disproportionally underrepresented. (Enwp is off in it's own land) (3) That fears about flagged revisions were causing the WMF to delay. I'm pleased that Sue has responded resolutely to clarify that (3) is not her position. In any case, please endeavor to not misquote me in this manner in the future. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
