Sorry to have made you tag it with the "edit war" template. I did revert twice today but I wasn't planning to continue doing so ad infinitum. No one likes an edit war. I'm new here, but I don't see much in the way of policy of dealing with controversial wikis. I ''presume'' that we want to keep relatively neutral. And I'm sure we don't want to go through this every time a contentious wiki battle spills over onto WikiIndex. I'm open to your suggestions. --[[User:MarvelZuvembie|MarvelZuvembie]] 01:19, 29 November 2008 (EST) | Sorry to have made you tag it with the "edit war" template.

Dear Elassint, thank you for fighting spam and otherwise doing so much to make this WikiIndex a better place.

Are there certain policies that users should be notified on this Wiki? There seems to be nothing of that sort on the policies. As such, isn't it accurate and fair to say that there's no "right" per se to block anyone without their realization of this at least? Granted, this is common sense to an extent, however it doesn't mean it should not be written either.

Dear Elassint, You mention on [[User talk:Ht14]] that "The same policy does exist here". Certainly I agree that policy *should* exist here, so today I added it to the draft policy proposal at [[WikiIndex talk:Blocking Policy]]. Or has it already been written down elsewhere in some other policy or guideline? Perhaps one of the [[:Category:Guidelines]]? --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 07:36, 8 November 2010 (PST) | |||
