As an easy start for BLPs to contact us for help, why
not have the
global footer of all WMF sites include a prominent and very visible
link to a simple mail form they can use to mail OTRS or the Foundation
for help?
Because no-one reads the footer (or we wouldn't have so many people
surprised we're a charity). Hardly anyone reads the sidebar, but at
least it's there. We changed the link on en:wp from "Contact us" to
"Contact Wikipedia" to make it clear we weren't talking about how to
contact the article subject ...
We could put an email link to info(a)wikimedia.org in the footer. Shall
we do so? Superfluous?
