An open letter

G’day our friends at Medium.

I hope all of you are staying safe and sane, so far.

I was too until I woke up a while ago unable to find the publication I was editor of and called home at Medium. Here is the Publication URL for your reference.

I also couldn’t find the publication founder, a mate of mine, on Medium either. His name is Dr Mehmet Yildiz. He’s a well respected IT guru, here in Melbourne. At Medium, he’s a top writer for many tags, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Technology, to name a few.

Dr has done a lot of work on Medium in the last two months to build a community of practice. A lot of lost Medium writers found voice at our publication and many new Medium writers were significantly helped on our slack channels, as well. All of that wouldn’t be possible if it weren’t for Dr.

Recently he came under attack from a few people who tried to sabotage his reputation and our publication. All of those accusations were baseless and without any truth. Dr, believing in transparency, openly wrote about that, and kept us posted on our Slack channels.

Can I please request you to let us know what Medium rules, we have violated so that I, and the other Editors, can provide some clarification.

It’s heartbreaking to see our publication gone. And we, all the editors and writers at Illumination, would like to see our publication up and running soon.

I, along with other editors and writers from Illumination, are happy to provide any support, answer questions, or vouch for our founder and editors if there’s a need.

We look forward to hearing from you.

With love and curiosity, From Illumination Editors, Writers, and Salam.
