Again, Wiki land != Wikipedia backend code development. What I'm saying is that being in charge of the code vests huge power, which behooves at least a front of humility. Is that coherent?
I agree that it confers a responsibility to honestly work with the users and writers, to build consensus, solicit input, and listen. I think I do. "Humility", I'll admit, is not something I'm very good at, nor do I see it as very useful.

I'll take honesty, consensus-building, input solicitation and listening over a front of humility any day. I think you're see problems where none exist again, Cunc.
