I intended to emphasize this but didn't - much of what folks have been
seeking (through a Board resolution creating the WikiCouncil, through meta
proposals, etc.) is a top down solution with community input. By that I mean
the attempts so far have been to start at the highest level of decision
making (the Board or the entire community), and failures at this level are
both common and expected. So take a page from political decision making and
problem solving - start at the base, the "grass roots", and begin solving
the problems you can without the intervention or imprimatur of the entire
community or the Board.
Once a group of people or council has demonstrated the ability to do this,
then proposals to give it a wider bailiwick will get a better response.
