Gerard,
My notion of community depends on context. The context of this thread was not defined by
me, so why do you not address your question to the person who brought it up? (Benjamin)
Please refrain from telling me what I accept or do not accept, I am aware of my own
thoughts and opinions and find your attempts to define my opinions offensive, as you are
necessarily ignorant of what I have not stated. It is entirely obvious that the WMF is not
a democracy, I have never claimed that they were, or even that they should be. The WMF has
had mixed success in its endeavours. Some things they do well. Communicating with English
Wikipedia on some aspects of trust and safety, policy and software changes is a thing they
have not done well. This is my opinion. Yours may differ. I will give your opinion the
consideration it deserves when it is explained logically, politely, and referring to
verifiable facts. The farcical state of some elected governments and the irresponsibility
of the elected is extremely familiar to me, as I live in a state where the elected
government has continuously failed to deliver on their promises and on the laws they make
(Not the USA, by the way, other countries also have embarrassing elected officials). That
does not relieve other elected bodies or persons of their responsibilities. Being
appointed to a position also does not relieve a person of their responsibility to do due
diligence in governing the institution they gave been appointed to govern. Failure to take
known risks into account is negligence, wherever a person is given the responsibility to
direct an organisation following a constitution which requires them to do so. Boards are
usually elected and appointed to take the responsibility to govern with due diligence and
to avoid where possible damaging the organisation. I have reasonable confidence that the
board will do its job. I do not have confidence in the ability of some of the working
groups to come up with workable solutions to the various problems of the various
projects.
There is a need for change, but the need is for carefully considered change that does not
unduly damage the projects, not a mixed bag of measures which includes poorly considered
and poorly articulated recommendations that have been put together by people who do not
appear to wish to communicate with those who will be affected by their recommendations.
Here are some friendly suggestions: Please read my words carefully and try to understand
my points, and refrain from assigning motives and opinions to me if I have not claimed
them for myself, or when they are based on the words of other people. Make sure you are
addressing the relevant person. Ask for clarification if you need it. Do not put words
into my mouth.
Peter

Hoi,
Your notion of community is what I question. It is in your refusal of
accepting that English Wikipedia is not a safe place, in your notion that
the WMF failed, you fail to accept that it is the WMF that is the arbiter
of last resort. You also fail to appreciate that the Wikimedia Foundation
is not a democracy. Only some of the board members are elected by the
community. The notion that elected officials are beholden to the electorate
has been spectacularly put on display in the United States so no they are
not beholden to you nor me.
"We" do not consider facts, we hide behind opinions. The result is that our
projects could do so much better once opinions are left for what they are
in the face of proven facts. We claim our references are important but
references to our behaviour have been reduced to who said what, where and
when.
Maybe the recommendations of working groups are not better in your opinion
nor mine. In the end it does not matter because there is so much that needs
an overhaul that defensive postures are exactly the behaviour that is best
to be disregarded. What is needed is accepting the need for change,
consider what the recommendations are and consider them along the lines of
how we could improve upon them.
Thanks

Gerard,
It is not clear who you are addressing here, but I am going to assume it
is Benjamin, who made the original claim. It is a fair question, and some
clarification would be welcome.
English Wikipedia may have failed to provide a safe environment, but the
WMF has failed possibly even more "spectacularly", and the recommendations
of the Working Group do not appear to be likely to be any better or more
effective.
Cheers,
Peter

Hoi,
May I ask what you mean with "the" community? If anything the Wikimedia
community exists in some 300 parts and every parts has as many distinct
opinions. There are essential conflicts of interest, by some there is a
sense of entitlement, either based on possession or based on promises made.
In many ways, what Jan-Bart wrote at the time makes as much sense then as
it made now. The model of self governance within a project works up to a
point but when it is then pointed out to it where it fails to meet
expectations, like it does when it is tasked to provide a safe environment,
it fails spectacularly. There is plenty of evidence showing how the well
fortified positions the English Wikipedia community among others has taken,
fails our readers in providing the best possible quality.
So what community and why should we bother when it is not even that great
as an abstraction.
Thanks,
GerardM

Has the board or any member of the board made any statement suggesting
that the board might overrule the community in this matter?

It is disturbing that you would even consider overriding the community in
such a massive way.
