Hi Kevin,

I am ok with this list being notified that a discussion is happening on Commons that is relevant to multiple wikis, and am ok with asking people from this list to contribute to the discussion on Commons.

I am hoping that we can keep the discussion to a single location, and I described some ways to encourage that consolidation in my first post on this topic.

You are right that there have been a number of times in the past when discussion relevant to a single wiki has moved or forked onto this list. I still think the best practice is to consolidate the discussion in a single place. Notifications about the discussion and requests for more participation can be made far and wide if that seems proportionate to the nature of the issue being discussed.

I described what I feel are best practices, but I respect that you feel differently and I respect your good intentions for the projects.
