- Spot on. If you are trying a little bit to be sarcastic, you are very good. If you aren't trying to be sarcastic, my mistake and I apologize. Best Regards, Barbara ✐✉ 15:14, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
- Hmm. Doesn't WordPress support comment sections to blogs? Or did someone at the Foundation decide comments from the community or readers was unnecessary? Or is the problem that no one who manages the blog knows how to implement a comment section? -- llywrch (talk) 07:31, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
- The WMF do not want an "Open" blog where readers can give feedback. The organization has been suffering a form of cognitive dissonance over the last decade by on the one hand ensuring their systems are increasingly protective and their operating decisions and procedures happen behind closed doors, while at the same time claiming to be leading the ethical fight for openness and transparency. It's bizarre, but I guess not a surprise for an organization that has closed down all possible strategies for moving its servers and data storage outside of U.S. legislation because its most senior managers really like working in Silicon Valley. --Fæ (talk) 14:53, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
