Hi Pine,

Thanks for reporting this issue, which is concerning indeed.

As a former product manager for the Editor Engagement team, I still have admin privileges for this list.

But I do not know how to remove a message that was posted in the public archives, such as this one:

https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/ee/2014-December/001329.html

If someone could teach me how, I would be happy to do remove the messages on this thread.

I defer to others with more technical knowledge to identify the root cause of this issue.

My colleagues and I will discuss this internally and will report back here once we have a solution.

Be well,


Fabrice

Hm, is the donate@ email address automatically forwarding emails to EE? If so, this is a problem. Can someone look into this ASAP?

Hi Donor services,

I'm confused. EE is a public email list. Why would a donor's name and email content be sent here? Did the donor consent to this? Also, what was the purpose of sending this email to EE? This appears to have been some kind of mistake.

Thanks,
Pine

Hi Justine,

Thank you for your email.

The Wikimedia Foundation does not actually manage or contribute to the editorial content of Wikipedia or our other projects. We are here primarily to provide infrastructure and support the tens of thousands of volunteers around the world who edit and contribute everyday. If you need help with an edit, you'd want to email info@wikimedia.org. This email address is answered by longtime project volunteers, and they can help with your question.

Sincerely,

OK. I'll consider a donation. And, if Wikipedia Editors can become more helpful and accommodating to folks like me, perhaps I'll consider more! (Trying to participate is downright painful right now.)  Best Regards,Justine tenZeldam510.447.9435 (talk/txt)www.solongsuburbs.comwww.justine.webstarts.comwww.twitter.com/justinetzwww.linkedin.com/in/justinet

We survive on donations from our readers. Now is the time we ask. If Wikipedia is useful to you, please take one minute to keep it online and ad-free another year. https://donate.wikimedia.org Thanks,
