-(I don't know if those of us who are not a part of the administration are welcome to weigh in on this stuff. I've gotten mixed signals when doing so. There doesn't seem to be any prohibition against me doing so, so I will post an opinion on this. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 21:42, 17 September 2009 (EDT))

-: You're welcome if you ask me. Trouble is, you're "weighing in" like a truckload of bricks. Search for your username on this page; it's plastered in it. Talking to yourself, writing more - and longer - comments than anyone else... seriously, what's the deal? [[Felix Pleşoianu]] | <small>[[User talk:Felix|talk]]</small> 01:13, 18 September 2009 (EDT)
-::I guess I figured it is text so no one has to read it. It wasn't until you and Dilley told me to slow down, etc, that I realized anyone was bothered by it. I don't have a problem with relocating my comments if they are excessive. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]] 22:21, 22 June 2010 (EDT)
 DavidCary's [http://www.wikiindex.org/index.php?title=WikiIndex_talk:Blocking_Policy&oldid=70223 original proposal] begins by saying it "is pretty much the same" as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Blocking_policy Wikipedia's block policy]. There was one important difference I noticed between WikiIndex' block policy, and Wikipedia's, but I don't want to mention it. If that is still the case the block policy shouldn't say it "is pretty much the same" Wikipedia. But I do think most of Wikipedia's block policy is along the lines of what is needed as a '''guide for sysops''', who are considering blocking a "troll" or editor who is "edit warring", disruptive/bickering/obnoxious/threatening/harassing, engaging in "gray spamming" (not obvious "spamming"), etc.
