::::I guess part of the "disaster/mess" comment is a result of my being involved in working out policy pages on their respective talk pages on a wiki that is more active than this one. We used a draft version in the project page, and headers in the talk page that made it clear what was being discussed in each section, and it worked well, and left a clear record behind of how the project page came to say what it says. I guess you guys are just used to working in a way that seems very foreign to me. Where might I find more information about this mode of working? Oh, and where is this "original wiki" I keep reading about?

: Huw Powell's suggestion to ''"find areas that people agree on"'' and ''"used a draft version in the project page"'' sounds like a good idea. So I moved discussion from the main page to the talk page at [[WikiIndex:Blocking | : Huw Powell's suggestion to ''"find areas that people agree on"'' and ''"used a draft version in the project page"'' sounds like a good idea. So I moved discussion from the main page to the talk page at [[WikiIndex:Blocking and banning policy]] ( [http://www.wikiindex.org/index.php?title=WikiIndex%3ABlocking_Policy&diff=68678&oldid=67723] ). | ||
: Should we do the same "move discussion to talk page" with this [[WikiIndex:Policies and Guidelines]] page? Should we merge [[User:Lumenos/WikiIndex (unwritten) policies]] into this talk page also? --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 09:41, 25 September 2009 (EDT) | : Should we do the same "move discussion to talk page" with this [[WikiIndex:Policies and Guidelines]] page?

::Parts of [[User:Lumenos/WikiIndex (unwritten) policies]] might work for this talk page but I mixed policy proposals with observations of the administration and editors. I'm gonna separate all that. I'm really confused as to what policies are currently in force and what role I am being permitted or invited, to play here. I'm attempting to minimize drawing attention to myself, by editing for WikiIndex off-site, and so that I can post things after I have had more time to develop them. Then I will post the policy proposals as subpages of this talk page.
