+I think that it is confusing to use the pronoun "we" on the wiki. Who would it refer to? Cognitive Edge, The Cynefin Centre, the Cynefin.io editors, both editors and readers, ...? I have replaced a few occurrences with "facilitators" when it seemed obvious to me that that was the class being referred to. The remaining uses of "we" are unclear to me.
+
+To a lesser degree, I think that the use of "you" and the imperative can be confusing. If it consistently refers to the reader who plans to take on the role of facilitator, then I think it should be fine in this article and avoids unwieldy repetitions of the term "the facilitator" or using the third person.
