Presumably they want someone who can be in London? or could this be done remotely?

Hi all Just to say that I've just had a chat with the nice man
from Newsnight and he's still really keen to set up an interview between the lovely Evan Davis and an editor, who can talk about the way in which these decisions are made. I'm making a few direct phone calls but if this is something you think you could do, please get in touch! I'm on 07803 505 169 or just drop me an email.
Cheers Lucy

Hmmm, trying to turn
an interview from "zomg! Wikipedia bans the Mail!" round to "actually this is all normal and we have some really interesting community preferences" sounds.... tricky. ;)

Hi all
Thanks very much for flagging this David. I think it would be
great if
someone could talk about this from an editor's
perspective - in particular
the process of consensus building
within the Wikipedia community, as it's
clear many people
working in the media don't understand this. If someone
does
respond to you directly, please could you let me know?
The office has had a flood of emails and phone calls which we've been
fielding as best as we can. I'm hoping that when San
Francisco wakes up and
comes online they will send me their
statement on the issue, which would
help to deal with
enquiries.
All best Lucy
