Please elaborate. I'm not on the WMUK board any more, but when I was I was frequently involved in decisions about other UK volunteers, other chapters, the WMF, the WMUK board itself, and all kinds of other groups any bodies which include people I am friends with. If I had had to recuse myself from all those decisions, I wouldn't have been able to do my job.
Sure. Difficult decisions can be taken, and friends and those who are not friends may be involved. I would hate to think that any board member, past, present and future would cast a vote based on a friendship. Sometimes you just have to tell a friend that they are wrong.
