::::To me it seems organized rather than cumbersome. This would be just a test to see if it causes too much animosity and edit waring. Make policy changes accordingly. And not block people for deleting info posting what looks like biased or inaccurate information. Instead try to rewrite their edits. Give people warnings and tell them they can come here and express their policy ideals rather than fighting over it. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] | |||
:::It sounds like we have got one sysop on board with this. I might suggest we start with creating a [[Criticism of WikiIndex]] and [[Criticism of Liberpedia]], because if we start with certain other wikis, people will cry foul. Unless regular editors of those other wikis want to create criticism pages of their wikis. I could write a pretty long criticism page for my wiki, that no one would read. :) [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 03:42, 30 August 2009 (EDT) | |||
