Also, 118 people (190 vs. 72 votes in the "poll" [1] on German Wikipedia)
are not "the community". They are a small part of the community.
The people who would profit [2] from the Media Viewer as a default feature
were not consulted.
Cheers,
Magnus

[2] Value of ""profit" TBD

If we accept the policy in principle, I don't

community entirely, unless WMF shows a will to reject community
patches related to issues which community finds important. Whether or
not this is the case, I don't care; it's a website in their hands and
they're welcome to shut it off without notice, or to experiment at
leisure.

Whoever believes that an administration of a crowdsourcing website can do
whatever they want just because they are running the website should
recollect what recently happened to Internet Brands and Wikitravel.
