And again, that was not a "on-wiki consensus": That was an action who started with a staff of WMF, discussed privately, put on air, discussed
in
a private mailing list, and took off. When I need to do anything on
en.wiki
I follow en.wiki, until there, don't try to imposse them to me.
We discussed that and approved it by RCOM in public. Our archives are public. There is actually absolutely nothing that RCOM does and that is not public. The archives of the mailing lists and the etherpad meetings are all online.
