Re: [Wikimediauk-l] A message from Wikimedia UK

WilliamH, I implore you to reconsider for the time being at least. It would benefit us all if you were to work towards getting an EGM to discuss this matter. http://uk.wikimedia.org/wiki/Call_for_EGM_2012 If the EGM does not occur then nothing can be gained. The call has only recently gone out tonight and within a short space of time I expect that the petition will pass. Consider it a last act if the EGM does not finish to your own liking but help the membership have the discussion it needs to have given Fae's refusal to step down. I am sure others on this list unhappy with the situation would agree.

Please terminate my membership of WMUK. This is not without regret, as my own personal albeit scant interactions with Fae have been wholly positive, and WMUK has always come across as very professional in its dealings with me. But, of a group promoting the editing of Wikipedia whose chairman is banned from editing, I find my membership and indeed the nature of the arrangement itself, completely incompatible. I hope I can rejoin at a later date. William Henderson.
