I was going to "stay out of the way" today, but your response begs a reply. It is apropos that I comment on your last comment to me first. As a human, it is expected that you are less enlightened. I often ask of those who wishes to engage with me to make certain that they facts are in order. In other words, come correct.

You said -


 * "No I think that you of all people should stay out of their way and let them find their own feet without outside influence."

Would you be so kind as to clarify your statement? More specifically, the part where you state "...stay out of their way...without outside influence." Are you suggesting that as a member of this community I should prove input?


 * "Its up to them to decide how to manage the wiki."

True, it is to them to decide how to manage the wiki, like it was up to the previous Admin team (including myself) to decide how to manage the wiki, but there were some on the wiki (yourself included) who did not like the way we decided to manage the wiki, hence a democratic election was called for and a relatively new Admin team elected. Now with that process in place, the community now has the power to decide how the wiki is managed. So in short, it really isn't up tp them to decide.


 * "You jumping in at the first post does not allow them to gather their own thoughts and coheision."

This is your fact check. It was Karen who jumped in with the first post, sharing her thoughts about where to begin. And though her post was directed towards the Admin team, transparency gives the community the right to comment on any discussion posted by them.


 * "You are trying to steer the boat from the get go ... no ...  Let them do it, sort out the previous admins structrure and see where that takes us"

I do not know what you mean by steering the boat from the get go. During my tenure as Admin, it was my responsibility to steer the boat, but that ended when I stepped down as the Admin and I have no desires to steer the boat again.


 * You said - " If the new admins continue with the same restirictions then I will accept that, I wont like it but I will accept it."

I am puzzled by that statement. Why are you so willing to accept those conditions now (if they were enacted) but previously you did not?

Note that I do not wish to continue carrying on this type of dialog with you (at least, not out on the wiki), but you have a tendency to say things that just cannot go unchecked. You have my email address, and if not, here it is - jeanpicardds9@gmail.com. Feel free to speak your mind, offer your POV, because I certainly will.
