"wikipedia" Domain acquisition

The "wikipedia.jp" domain acquisition was requested from User:Aphaia
by the Wikimedia Foundation staff. The individual User:Tietew was
owned. On earth, who requested it?

Re: "wikipedia" Domain acquisition [In reply to]

I usually give no reply to trolls, so it's just for your information
as other subscribers on good faith.

It's too bad English to understand what it means, so I just give you
details instead.

I don't know when wikipedia.jp was first acquired exactly but the
first acquisition might be in 2003, when WMF had no staff nor active
board members. The domain has been held by two jawiki admin/b'crats on
good faith respectively. On the second acquisition some board members
were informed, since there was no paid staff in the WMF office yet (it
was a way long before WMF has such).

So

> The "wikipedia.jp" domain acquisition was requested from User:Aphaia
> by the Wikimedia Foundation staff

the above is a blatant lie I have no good reason to discuss further.
Due to his disruption I personally advice the moderators of this list
and EnWP arb to ban this user who has edited only Jimmy's talk to
troll jawiki and its good users.
Cheers,

Re: "wikipedia" Domain acquisition [In reply to]

Hi Naoko,

Thanks for clarifying. That indeed helps a bit more than just the original
text.
I guess a good summary would be "the domain is in safe community hands, and
if the Foundation would like that to be different, they can ask so"?

Best,

Lodewijk

thank you for your good summary, that is exactly what I understand.
I sent a closer note to Mike Godwin, separated from this trolling, so
I think there is no worry for us community.
