Hi all, I think it is best in everybody's interest that the bulk of communication is done on wiki itself, on the Wiki in question. If it is cross wiki discussion pertaining to India, it can be on the WikimediaIndia-l or other lists.

I agree with Srikanth, first preference is to have discussion on related wiki and for cross-wiki topics mailing list is the best.
I find it more time wasting to go on social media then to read emails and reply them.
Don't see a logic behind abandoning mailing list and using facebook or any other social media " to communicate faster and allow us to contribute more of our time to article write and other related activities" trust me, checking mails takes a lot less time than going on social media.

Agree with Dhaval and Srikanth. I think next to wiki, mailing list has good archive system as well. We could easily retrieve mails as per months, subjects, etc.
Also, it is really hard to track communication in different places.
Maybe if some important discussion is happening there or here, someone can take some efforts to divert people there by asking their attention.

I have no personal opinion. I find the gradual shift in preference of young folk from older forms of discussion - wiki & email, to newer, ie Facebook & now Whatsapp. I'm available everywhere for who ever wants to interact with me.
In the case of FB, I just pointed out existing groups so that there would be less fragmentation.
