Despite everything, Anders, it is inappropriate for staff to publicly
prosecute Lila. The board is aware of the many issues, quite a few not yet
public on any forum. And it is for the board to solve.

Reading an following this thread makes me feel
profoundly sad. And the
symptoms indicates for me that there is indeed something "rotten" going on.
I feel deep sympathy for staff whose pain is seems to go very deep, and I
would really want to help out to to ease the problems if it was in my
capability.
But there is as Risker puts it a deep information asymmetry in this thread.
I am sitting far away from the SF office and have no direct contact with
staff and even if I read of the pain, I do not catch any concrete facts
what it is all about. The handling of Knowledge engine has not been good,
but it can be remedied. The Board is not optimal and perfect, but the
members are clever and loyal to our mission and I have no reason to doubt
that they will take care of things on their "table", even if somewhat
slower pace then people would want.
And even if I feel and sympathize with the frustration of staff I would
like to ask the inputs to this thread to be more factual and also show the
respect of each others as we are used to in our daily Wikipedia dialogues.
Anders
With sympathy and love to all involved in this crisis

Just staff and former staff? Huh. You must be

What's it like there?
To Risker's point; "don't beat up on people who have less information
than you" is a good principle. But so is "don't call people
incompetent when the alternative is that you're missing something".
Speaking as both a volunteer and staff, Anthony, I have found your
attitude in this conversation and others on the subject to be deeply
unproductive. It would be good if you spent more time asking questions
and less time dismissing people's concerns.

Ah, Brandon. Thanks for writing me off as
"the folks at Wikipediocracy."
I'm also the folks at en.Wikipedia and the folks on the board of
WikiProject Med Foundation. And I give a shit about Wikipedia.
This push for the removal of the ED is coming from staff. And failed
staff.
If you want support from the wider editor community, you'll need to bring
us with you. I'm making it clear to you that presently you haven't done
that yet. Maybe you don't need to.

Danny, don't kid yourself! The folks at Wikipediocracy know
everything about everything that's happened
at the Foundation and about
everything that will EVER happen. They've never been wrong, ever!
I don't understand why we're still talking about this!
