From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

The medium of engagement was determined by the needs and practices of communities and individuals.  Different language communities have different preferences for discussion methods and communication channels. Some communities like to conduct important discussions on Meta whereas a majority of them prefer to have discussions on their village pumps with some side discussions on social media channels. Since a discussion about harassment cases and behavioural issues is a sensitive topic for many community members they voiced their choice of having those discussions either through direct private discussions or sending their responses through anonymous surveys. The facilitators respected the voiced needs and utilized the preferred conversation spaces and styles of their communities. They used a variety of methods to engage with the communities and adapted to new channels as and when requested by community members.
