There seems to be no clear system here for how/where to discuss how WikiIndex works. This page is one place. [[WikiIndex:Community_talk]] is another place. [[WikiIndexFaq]] is another place. User talk pages is another place, particularly those pages of the core folk. (In some cases, you can discuss the matter right at the appropriate location, but for some matters there is no such location.)--[[User:69.87.199.67|69.87.199.67]] 06:15, 15 February 2007 (PST) | There seems to be no clear system here for how/where to discuss how WikiIndex works.

Let us spread mercy, not conflict. Let us drop the boiler plate phrase "'''edited mercilessly'''". It pretends to be a cute warning to newcomers, but is actually in deadly earnest. It is no coincidence that WP is awash in a tidal wave of antagonism, building on such a base. Let's not repeat this threat to contributors, nor encourage editors to treat other's work in such a fashion. Let us rather encourage ourselves to be '''sincere, careful, and considerate'''. *** Here is a suggestion for improved boiler plate: | |||

Also, it would improve the editing process if this boiler plate were moved down below the Summary box and Save button. Or, maybe Summary/Save could be right over the toolbar above the edit box?--[[User:69.87.199.67|69.87.199.67]] 06:45, 15 February 2007 (PST) | |||
