Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

Thanks David. With regard to cooling it, I suppose it is hard to stop my experience and long term frustration in being unable to follow through or have a frank discussion on essential changes the charity needed and still needs from leaking out in my emails. I'll consider how to share more of my e

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

I hope they will step in more in future. We should all aim to maintain a level of decorum on this list, even when we're criticising one another, and the moderators should say something when the decorum slips.   Harry Mitchell http://enwp.org/User:HJ Phone: 024 7698 0977 Skype: harry_j_mitchell

As someone who reads the list but rarely contributes, may I make a suggestion? Moderators absolutely should pull people up for using an inappropriate tone in their emails. However this should be done, in the first instance, privately. Theresa On 13 Apr 2014 15:58, "Fæ" wrote: > Hi James, > > Th

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

Hi James, Thanks for chipping in as a moderator. I look forward to the moderators being just as critical with other contributors on this list when they are perceived to be snarky or bitchy, I am sure you wish to treat all contributors here equally. As Harry mentions, there have been many posts fa

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

No, Fae, I don't think that is obvious at all. It came across as snarky and bitchy and Richard was well within his rights to call you on it. On 13 Apr 2014 15:52, "Fæ" wrote: > Sure Harry, however I think it obvious that my email was not intended > to be rude. Considering how rarely we see modera

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

Sure Harry, however I think it obvious that my email was not intended to be rude. Considering how rarely we see moderators of this list officially using their authority to criticise users, in fact I do not recall this happening in 2013 or 2014 until now, I find this incredibly odd. It seems reasona

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

Fae, I've seen worse emails to this list, but I can see Richard's point, which is that you could have written something to the effect of "Jon, would you mind including all the relevant information in your emails to the list", for example, which has the same meaning but does not come across as u

[Wikimediauk-l] Potential collaboration with Wikimedia Bangladesh

Hello everyone, At the Wikimedia Conference I have had a meeting with Wikimedia Bangladesh. We discussed the possibility of working together to develop a project focusing on the Bengali Wikipedia. It is early days but we would love for you to get involved in supporting a collaboration and sharing

Re: [Wikimediauk-l] Fwd: Armenian wiki video

Two other possibilities: 1. Drop a private mail to jon 2. Send the link yourself, as enock did when this happened to me a week ago Fae, you seem to have a tendency to reply "yes" to the question "you ve got a watch", instead of telling the time, hehe. Imo dealing with imperfection is one of the m

No, I don't get it. Can someone please highlight exactly how this statement is unacceptably rude? "If you are going to repost emails to this list, please ensure you include the relevant content." Fae On 13 April 2014 08:36, Richard Symonds wrote: > Hello all, > > I feel that as a list moderator

Hello all, I feel that as a list moderator I should step in and say that, for a second there, the tone of this list dropped needlessly. Fae, your email came across as rude: whether you meant it or not, that's how it came across. The main reason that this mailing list isn't much used by the genera
