That has not been my experience. In fact the last time I sent a coherently-explained,
completely civil, on-topic,and time-sensitive email to the list, it was held by a
moderator who:
A) Suggested I was "trolling the WMF" (is trolling an entire 100-person-plus
organization even possible?)
B) Faulted it on bases including that I used the phrase "couple days" (i.e.
"this might take a couple days") rather than his preferred formulation
"couple *of* days"
C) Put it up for a consensus vote among the other list moderators.
I see the list has some new moderators, but I figure odds are this email will be stopped
as well.
