Mailing List Archive

I'll set this up today. My plan is to name you as the administrator
for the list. Please let me know if you would prefer not to be the
admin. Give me 5 minutes to set it up, but the posting address will
be:

WikiPL-l@wikipedia.org

and the subscription/info page will be:
http://www.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikipl-l

Anybody else need a list?

What about a maillinglist "announce-l@wikipedia.org ?
Only to announce software changes and other thing that have a inpact on
all wikipedia's. NOT for posting somthing about Lir, TMC or Helga.

Only for important things and well in advance. So when you come at home
you do not have to read 60 - 80 emails to find out what discissens are
made on the English maillinglist about your home wikipedia.

No posting for the genaral public. Not for discussion, only to announce.
Discussion -> Intlwiki-l

Of cource if nobody wants to use it, it is pointless.

Now *this* is funny. I also propose that we have a meta policy list,
not to discuss policy, but to discuss policies on policies. That's
99% of what wikipedia-l is about. :-)

Done. WikiEN-l@wikipedia.org, subscribe at
http://www.wikipedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l

Again, I set the admin for the list to the person who requested it.
Let me know if this is a problem...

Done. announce-l@wikipedia.org, subscribe at

I am also setting it so that only list members can post. We may want
to eventually make a list of people who can post, but I wouldn't know
who to include...

Nope, some guys from the de.wikipedia want to discuss the project
without hearing about TMC and related stuff in 95% of the mails...

The request for <wikiEN-l>? That's no joke.
It's certainly still a controversial subject,
but there are a lot of us that think that such a list should exist,
and should take most of the traffic from <wikipedia-l>.
See, well, practically everything anthere's written lately.

Jason,

Thanks a lot for your quick response. I am sure Polish Wikipedians will
appreciate this mailing list.

Best regards,
Kpjas.

Yes. Can you please set up a list for
Esperanto?
So we can stop using the yahoogroups-list ...
