[Wikimedia-l] movement blog, not WMF blog, was: Go away, community (from WMF wiki at least)

[Huib Laurens]

It was the explanation for both, I have some more communication:

I can, but I'll be honest, it's about number 19 on my list and i'm on about
number 2.  We'll get it figured out ASAP :)

and the reaction of Jay:

Hi huib - I got around to this today.  I think someone misread your
username and changed your role, and possibly a whole range of accounts,
some of whom may not have been moderating comments.

I put you back to editor status so you can mod comments.  We may change
roles again in the coming weeks as I slowly investigate how to streamline
systems on the blog.  We'll let you know.

Thanks for checking in
jay

So after that i was moderator for 12 hours and then all got removed again.
This makes me believe that there is no communication between the staffers
at all. And I believe Phillipe already knew, but didn't want to tell me...
