Hi Victor,
That's great. I can't see any complaints about WMF employees in the links you provided.
I am sure that we could find 100 examples of the partners of Wikimedians doing something on Wikimedia projects, it would be a great topic for "reasons why I love Wikimedia"... That is not the issue here, in fact I encouraged Wil to get experience contributing to the projects *before* using highly public platforms to complain about Wikimedia and Lila's new employees.
Thanks, Fae

So that Wil's interest manifested around the time Lila was announced as the next ED seems to me to be perfectly natural, even if I have expressed serious concerns about *how* that interest was expressed. -- Marc
There is a big difference between your partner having an interest in your organization, and going on to publish public complaints about the staff that you have complete authority and responsibility for employing.
I may be wrong, perhaps someone has some examples of where this worked out well? The only examples from history and the political world I can recall, did not.
