For existing guidelines, see the [[Guidelines category]]. A block policy doesn't exist (aside from "[[Spam_Control_Policy|spam]]") and is being discussed on [[WikiIndex_talk:Blocking_Policy]]. This seemed to be a source of confusion and conflict so I ([[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]]) made this article to sort through a number of these specific issues. Please add your suggestions or questions here or on the [[WikiIndex_talk:Policies_and_Guidelines|talk page]].

'''ANNOUNCEMENT: This is a proposal to adopt [https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Wikipedia:Npov Wikipedia's policy of a neutral point of view] for this page. Comments that do not seem to follow this policy shall be relocated to the talk page. Secondly, it is proposed that we do not post about any ''specific'' conflict that has been going on, but instead ''speak only in terms of generalizations''. And that we also move any of those comments that are already here, to the talk page.''' That we do this by ''translating'' these comment into a generalization, which will remain where the comment was, while the comment is relocated to the talk page.

I ([[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]]) searched for some policy pages and found only [[WikiIndex:Editing_etiquette]]. A block policy doesn't exist (aside from "[[Spam_Control_Policy|spam]]") and is being discussed on [[WikiIndex_talk:Blocking_Policy]]. This seemed to be a source of confusion and conflict so I made this article to sort through a number of these specific issues.
