Hello Mark: Isn't it simply a question of being able to recognize when your proposal is getting it nowhere, or at least that the time isn't right for it? I agree that you were responding to questions and objections, but there are also times when silence is the best response. That response may even help in selling your point when you raise it again six months or a year later. A mosquito who takes her fill of blood and flies away has a better chance of survival than one who persists in buzzing around your head.

The thing is though, it's not like I sent 20 messages in a row asking for a Friulian Wikipedia, I wrote one, and responded to peoples questions and objections. To not do that might seem like I no longer want it created.

One thing that gets me irritated is that you do not use 1 or 2 messages for Friulian, but over 20 already. That quickly destroys any wish to support you. After 3 or 4 messages, the reaction changes to "we know that already". At least for me.
