I am an audience! Thanks and it really makes some broader points. We often start from finding people who have a passion about a subject but don;t edit yet. That at least solves the 'blank sheet of paper' fear. Liked the discussion though.

Thanks. The problem of the blog post is IMHO that it's unclear what audience it's directed to. The learnings and suggestions *might* be useful for some en.wiki WikiProjects, but en.wiki is obviously the least suitable wiki for such experiments. There are no learnings for other projects and I see no answer e.g. to questions I had for a similar fr.wiki banner a few weeks later. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/**index.php?title=Meta%** 3ARequests_for_help_from_a_**sysop_or_bureaucrat&diff=** 5337142&oldid=5337118https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Meta%3ARequests_for_help_from_a_sysop_or_bureaucrat&diff=5337142&oldid=5337118
It will be for next time then. :)

P.s.: It's not particularly surprising, I see that I had already predicted this failure. <https://meta.wikimedia.org/w/**index.php?title=Talk:** CentralNotice/Calendar&oldid=**5337147#Philippines_** recruitment_for_two_weekshttps://meta.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:CentralNotice/Calendar&oldid=5337147#Philippines_recruitment_for_two_weeks
