Dear Board members,
On behalf of the fellow Language committee members, I am sending the
following request to you:
During more than a decade of its existence, Language committee's main task
was to block creation of the projects. Having in mind that goal and the
fact that the capacities of the Wikimedia movement at that time were not
linguistically strong, the main rule related to the decision-making process
inside of the Language committee was consensus.
Language policy is different today than it was at the time of creation. We
have established a common sense practice based on the situation then. As a
result, we ask the Board to reconsider the rule of consensus inside of the
Language committee and allow it to make decisions by majority,
supermajority or other methods defined by the committee itself.
Milos
