Hi mailing list colleagues,
I'm not sure whether I should make this be public, but I tend to be a frequent participant on mailing lists so maybe sharing this would be good.
I am taking a temporary break from participating on Wikimedia mailing lists. Recently I am finding myself frequently experiencing frustration in conversations on lists, and I am concerned that in my frustration I may write something that I later regret. Also, I would like to be a generally positive presence on the lists, and I think that a "reset" would be good.
I will remain in the Wikiverse for the foreseeable future. I like Wikimedia's educational mission, and I like my current principal project. I will continue to be a list subscriber, and may occasionally read list discussions. Also, I will continue to read off list emails. Perhaps in a month or two I will resume participating on lists.
Thanks for all that you do in support of the mission. The Wikiverse is amazing and I am grateful to be a small part of it.
Sorry to hear about your negative experiences, Pine and thanks for your continued support to the movement!
See you around the Wiki cyberspace! :)
