those who object to this banner have not rationally presented any possible harm that could result.
From the opening email on this that you yourself presented you
reported the following objections:
1. It looks like spam (harming our reputation) 2. It raises questions due to Jimmy Wales connections to the group (harming our reputation) 3. It looks symptomatic of malware (harming the user experience) 4. The community wasn't consulted (harming community relations with the Foundation)
I take no position on any of those (especially as I have not seen the banner) save to say they do not seem "irrational" arguments as you suggest.
