All The Tropes Wiki Project, Part XXVII

[Labster]

Is the director who made the motion to dissolve the company still with Miraheze, migrated to WikiTide, or gone from both groups? The answer to that affects my answer to your question.

He made the motion, and then the meeting immediately adjourned. He then resigned and started WikiTide, bought the domain name, and put up the servers.

Honestly as I read these meeting minutes I'm unimpressed by all of the behavior here. And the fact that the board has three members, now two members, out of a theoretical nine, with no representatives for users or staff. And the fact that they didn't have a meeting for five months, and only met then to let everything explode.

One person is President/Secretary/Treasurer (and was before all of this)? That's not even legal in the U.S., though I assume as an attorney he's not doing it wrong for the U.K.

As for community splits, I go through something similar after every general election. Meet the new boss, now get back to work doing what I've been doing for a couple of decades. Not exactly the same as this case, I know, but from an end-user point of view it may as well be.

In this case, all I care about is who's best-able to provide the service that I expect from a wiki farm... and if they're equally able, then why migrate?

EDIT: And I see Miraheze's CVT ("Trust & Safety") is down to one person. Promotion to Steward is a no-go there until the CVT gets its numbers back up. I can't find any web presence for WikiTide yet.

At this point I think most/all appointments would come directly from the board, as it's basically emergency time.
