Governance reform and AGF challenge

Hi! I've been reading through some of your comments on WT:Governance reform. I find hard rules and binding decisions as appealing as the next person, but I also find your arguments very compelling.

Working within a corporate hierarchy, I see first-hand the tension between being bold to get things done, and waiting for the formal decision-making process to complete. When I do employee performance reviews there are usually questions on the form about display of management skills. Non-manager employees almost always skip these questions on the grounds that they simply have zero opportunity to exercise management skills. I tell them that the true test of management skills is exercising influence over others when you don't have a manager title, or when they don't report to you. I guess this corresponds to building consensus.

I followed the link to WP:Lectures, and I'm sorry to find that I missed the session on Fill's AGF challenge. I'm sure that you're really busy, but I'd appreciate any feedback you might have on my answers. Cheers, Bovlb (talk)

A barnstar for you!

	I'm in a discussion about whether Wikipedia:Edit warring should describe "bold-revert" as "the BRD cycle" (hmm, where'd that 'D' go?), and it occurred to me that I missed seeing you around and having someone else explain what "the wiki process" is.

Why it is not smart to link All The Things

If I Link Everything almost everything actually exists.

Yet a lot of the things you linked to link to things that have nothing to do with the sentence in hand. For instance, "Almost" is about the "almost" in mathematics. Well I see your point, you may try to link to Wiktionary instead using [ [ wiktionary: placewordhere | placewordhere ] ] . LalalalaSta (talk) 16:38, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yuppers. I was teaching an introduction to mediawiki. I was showing folks that if we were to link automagically, the words can end up linking every which way except in a useful direction ;-) (hence the need for manual use of [[ ]] ) O:-) --Kim Bruning (talk) 18:21, 14 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
