Delphine, this was possibly the strongest email of the last four months or so of this mind-numbing nonsense.
The Board. I never really understood it. I did feel that it's supposed to lead the editors and the staff in _some_ way, but, being both a staff member and a volunteer editor, I never felt that it _actually_ does. Even though quite a lot of the Board members are totally wonderful people, wonderful Wikimedians and _my personal friends_, they never felt as Wikimedia's leaders. And I'd think that they should be. Leader worship of the kind that is common in USSR, DPRK, or the Linux kernel, was NEVER my cup of tea, but _some_ (SOME!!!) kind of leadership would be nice. It feels like a pregnant void at the moment. Please, somebody, make it stop. Let's go back to improving the encyclopedia, or something. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
