I think that the correct question is if it was inspiring for the community of commons wiki, which it was designed for. When someone spends the time working on something what is useful for users of site, it should be naturally interesting enough for wmf to spend their time to review it (someone did a work for you, and doesn't even want any reward for that, can you at least look on the code?) There were many complaints from side of community that wmf comes a lot with some stuff no one really wants or is interested in which is deployed no matter if it gained any consensus or not (simply - wmf overrides the community). Which is bit funny in this context when the "wanted" software made by volunteers is ignored, because it's not sufficiently inspiring for wmf, even if users wants it and some other software is deployed no matter if someone wants it. I am wondering what makes the software "inspiring enough" to be deployed. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
