:::::::So .... there was some debate about this article at the end of June 2009, and as a consequence it was cut to the talk page in early September 2009? I agree that different wikis may work on different time-scales - but one might argue that taking two months to react to a problem and after everything seems to have settled down is a bit glacial.--[[User:False Flag|False Flag]] 11:05, 11 September 2009 (EDT) | :::::::So .... there was some debate about this article at the end of June 2009, and as a consequence it was cut to the talk page in early September 2009?

::::::::Anyway, I've edited it to remove the downtime stuff. It certainly ain't controvertible now! So what's the deal? Where are the syspos?--[[User:False Flag|False Flag]] 12:31, 11 September 2009 (EDT) | ::::::::Anyway, I've edited it to remove the downtime stuff. It certainly ain't controvertible now!

The intensity around the edit warring of the last few months caused me to call out that I would move the articles to the talk page for things to settle down. I left that notice stand for a week, 4 or 5 [[Sysops]] seemed to agree with the idea. Now we have new folks coming to [[WikiIndex]] to weigh in on how we do things here. While I appreciate that, I also highlight what David is saying. Wiki is slow - we are not interested in being a fighting ground - that is counter to our wiki values. Maybe we were remiss in not having them clearly spelled out, but we haven't had to for the last three years. I am considering locking the whole wiki down while sysops figure this out and would like to hear what others think about that. Lumenos, while trying to help clear a path forward, you are in effect edit spamming recent changes and I can not follow what you are trying to say/do - so if you could slow your pace down, I would much appreciate that. Voting is not really something I am personally interested in. I suggested 3 sysop and 3 editors agree on the text of 5 articles (I had originally called out three). What I wanted to see was people working on them. Best, [[MarkDilley]] | |||
