Re: [Wikipedia-l] Requests page

Dear fellow list subscribers, Yesterday I had the unpleasant experience that Mark Williamson scolded me for "Censor" and "Thought police". The reason was that I had deleted some of the requests on the Requests for new languages page on meta (http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Requests_for_new_languages), and subsequently he placed most of them back, along with some other ones that had been removed by long, and not by me. As a matter of facts, I got /furious/ and if Mark had stood right before me I would have spit into his face. Later however, he eludicated the reason why he placed them back, and we seem to agree on more things than I thought at first. The page /is/ really getting overloaded with requests and becomes too long. The difference was, he wanted to keep them anyway. I may opinion, the right solution is to cut-and-paste them to an archive, newly to be created. I could very well create it right now, but thanks to Mark's great action I am unsure whether this wil be appreciated. Thanks in advance, Incompetent, inautoritive censor and thought police Wouter Steenbeek. Btw: it seems perhaps a little inappropriate to discuss this meta topic on the Wikipedia mailing list, but since the topic is realted to the creation of new Wikipedias I took the liberty to post it here. _________________________________________________________________ Speel online games via MSN Messenger http://messenger.msn.nl/ _______________________________________________ Wikipedia-l mailing list Wikipedia-l(a)Wikimedia.org http://mail.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikipedia-l
