This is being discussed on Jimbo's talk page at
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Jimbo_Wales#.22I_actually_hate_it_h…. A
number of us feel that that hostility and contention are driving away good-faith editors.
Would someone from Growth comment on WMF's current efforts to recruit and retain
editors? Also, could people comment about how WMF or community members might be able to
influence English Wikipedia to be a friendlier and more civil place?
Thanks,
Pine
