Hey List,
final part of three - I think after all this gloom I do have to
propose some solutions too:
#1 EASY but hard on the ego
Only activate the pretty viewer on mobile devices per default. See
- easy. And those german wikipedians, who are "in Europe but
certainly in the global south (GerardM)" can live happily ever
after as well as those tablet driven southern rascals who are the
future. Give the chapters some clearly defined discretion
concerning feature-activation. Define the difference and rights
(!) of the community concerning tech decisions, management stuff and
content-specific decisions.
#2 HARDER but easier on the ego
Just set it active but don't hinder admins to deactivate it after
local RfCs. Get rid of the - now - poisonous superprotect.
#3 DESTRUCTIVE but great for the ego
Have fun showing those volunteers who got the power. We got the
money, we got the last say, we have superpowers! I mean - really?
