Hoi, Dunning and Kruger have nothing to do with it; I am perfectly able to get it wrong. What you do is dismissive and you do not make a point. That makes it a fail by default. Thanks, GerardM

Hoi, Just analyse the text, read the arguments. When you express an opinion, it warrants analysis. When this is not permitted it follows that you can not argue based on what people state. To what extend do you allow for the exchange of arguments when you do not allow for reading and commenting on what has been expressed?
For the record I do value WereSpielChequers, he is imho an accomplished Wikimedian who I respect.
When you tell me that I cannot comment on what people write, how do you expose a bias. What does it do for a freedom of expression? What I bring are arguments that you do not refute by dismissing them. Thanks, GerardM

Dear WereSpielChequers, the thing with bias is that it shows in the
choices
made. You are a Wikipedian, do not really care for the other projects
and
you make that plain in what you say.
This sort of assumption-making about other list participants' motives is completely unwarranted.[1] You've been doing it repeatedly. Please
stop.
[1] As regards WereSpielChequers, it is also demonstrably false. He has nearly 500,000 edits on Commons. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, mailto:wikimedia-l-request@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe
