Like many other female editors in Wikipedia history, I have become burned out from the overly aggressive behavior of so many editors who are always ready for argument and seldom look for compromise, who consort together using means and methods outside WPs more public communication channels to pounce on other editors at any sign of "weakness" (such as not being wiling to engage in endless conflict), whose outlook on the world is so tainted by conflict and war as to never admit of peace and collaboration, and who show little regard or respect for work some editors have done over many years. For at least the time being, I will be taking a Wiki break. Many thanks to the few editors here who do approach their contact with others in good humor and cooperative spirit.

Request:
In order to improve communication between genealogy interested wikipedians, as well as taking new, important steps towards a creation of a new project site, we need to make communication between the users easier and more effective.
At Mail list on meta is discussed the possibility of creating a genealogy-related Wikimedia email list. In order to request the creation of such a list, we need your voice and your vote.
In order to create a new list, we need to put a request it in Phabricator, and add a link to reasoning/explanation of purpose, and link to community consensus. Therefore we need your vote for this now, so we can request the creation of the mail list.

A demo wiki is up and running!
Dear members of WikiProject Genealogy, this will be the last newsletter for 2017, but maybe the most important one!
You can already now try out the demo for a genealogy wiki at https://tools.wmflabs.org/genealogy/wiki/Main_Page and try out the functions. You will find parts of the 18th Pharao dynasty and other records submitted by the 7 first users, and it would be great if you would add some records.
And with those great news we want to wish you a creative New Year 2018!
