Thread:Talk:Mailing lists/Merge/reply (12)

Not sure I like what's happened here. This page is now misleading, and effectively hides the non-support lists from view. The implication is that these are the MW-related lists, whilst in fact there are many others that would be of interest to the general (non-WMF) public. In particular things like mediawiki-enterprise, which is completely orthogonal to WMF use-cases.

My firm belief is that this page should be largely reverted, and should remain the primary list of MW-related mailing lists. The page on meta should be updated so the 'MediaWiki and technical' section lists all WMF-specific technical mailing lists, such as for toolserver, stats, etc. and then has a prominent link to the MW page saying "For mailing lists related to the development/use of MediaWiki - the software that powers most WMF projects - see the mailing lists page on mediawiki.org.
