Indeed - and you should always be careful to make assumptions about 
the 'silent majority' of people who do not voice their opinion for one 
reason or another.  I for example know of quite a few people who in 
general have a positive attitude to either Wikidata or mechanical edits 
and want to explore the possibilities of these but who feel the 
attitude and approach of Yuri Astrakhan is inconsiderate, 
non-constructive and damaging.  I would wish more of them would speak 
up here but i also understand if they do not want to "pour oil into the 
fire" so to speak.
