Indeed I have.
And Kim, as far as I know there are NO WAY to put a
sumary in a Central
Notice action. And I'm not a en.wiki user, so I'm not forced to give any
reason to en.wiki community about a action I took in another wiki. As for
meta, there was a page (
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Central_notice_requests) created AFTER
I disable the banner.
Just for an action on meta, I'm sure meta has the same rule.
And again, that was not a "on-wiki
consensus": That was an action who
started with a staff of WMF, discussed privately, put on air, discussed in
a private mailing list, and took off.
Right, none of which is valid for meta _or_ for en.wikipedia afaik.
When I need to do anything on en.wiki
I follow en.wiki, until there, don't try to imposse them to me.
That said, your action did have consequences on-wiki on en.wikipedia, didn't it?
I don't really want to turn this into a bureaucratic fight; just a small note to
be careful. In the end you acted correctly according to consensus, albeit by
accident, as you now confirm.
sincerely,
Kim Bruning
