::::::::No, Leucosticte *interpreted* their actions as setting a community practice. We are now trumping that with discussion. How Wikis Work 1A. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 21:16, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

::::::::Once upon a time, Leucosticte knew discussion wikiquette. He's either forgotten it or doesn't care. Above, he wrote "two sysops." Because he is now interpreting a preliminary opinion from another sysop as an "establishment of a practice." he changed it, just now, to "three," which then acts to make it appear that succeeding comment was silly. That's his MO, in general. Changing a comment after there is a response, a basic wiki no-no. Strikeout, bracketed emendations with a small text signature, that's all fine, extra notes, fine.

My point was that discussion trumps arbitrary, ad hoc, sysop decisions, usually. The discussion that has existed so far has been heavily influenced by ''impressions.'' Create by L. So we'll see. This is a page for the establishment of policy. Policy also requires ''application and interpretation.'' There are procedures for that, mostly not established on WikiIndex because the level of conflict was low. Procedures can make it all much easier and more predictable. But wiki oldtimers then complain about "instruction creep" and "bureacracy." But the future arrives anyway, one way or another. --[[User:Abd|Abd]] ([[User talk:Abd|talk]]) 00:08, 7 January 2015 (UTC)
