Please re consider your opinion like "noises on the list" and other
similar statements, thanks.

As of the votes in the wiki, it is perfectly fine and valid, easy to
manage and open. Much more easier than counting random votes in the
ML, especially when discussions are split in many threads. The
discussions and related activities do happen on the list and that's a
good thing.
