I think we still need some time. I do see some progress. I do see more positive activity. I see conversations beginning. I am seeing the beginning of healing. We are going to have to remain open to listening to one another as well as open to other ideas for it to continue.

I know for my part, I have had a major realization. My residual fear of a TDC type happening again has colored my perceptions in many a conversation thus affecting my reactions. Although my policy is to stay quiet, it still permeated my view of the wiki as a whole. And certainly how I perceived certain people. I know I am not alone in this.

After this realization, I have gone back and reread some things. Wow, what a difference. I did not know how much my fear had tainted otherwise normal discourse until I did that. I am beginning to see some things differently as well as some of my feelings on things are changing. I am still cautious, but I feel like I am now more capable of being more open. I also am going to be more cognizant of the "lens" that I am viewing through when reading posts. I am going to give myself time to process and come back and reread with less fear and see if I still have the same reaction.

At some point we need to have a conversation about editing. I am not at all sure how to go about this as emotions on the subject are all jacked up right now, so it may have to wait for a bit. We all need time to find our footing. So do the Admins. We CAN get there.
