I wonder what the ostensible excuse for the firings were? The article didn’t mention it, but I suppose that’s not public information.
…It should be, though. I feel like there’s not a lot of reason for Wikipedia to keep decisions secret.

I mean, it'd be pretty harsh for them to publicly publish that the teams commit velocity was down and they were all PIP'd, lol. Not that I think that's likely, but there are lots of possible for cause reasons that shouldn't be shared.
If anything, I suspect the reason is the more pedestrian "moving in a different direction" from the wish list process.

That’s true.
