I searched for some policy pages and found [[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. [[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]]
I ([[User:Lumenos|Lumenos]]) searched for some policy pages and found [[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. Please add your suggestions or questions here or on the [[WikiIndex_talk:Policies_and_Guidelines|talk page]].

I suggest we discuss block policy [[WikiIndex_talk:Blocking_Policy|there]], and that it is good that we '''clearly separate the [[Editing etiquette|etiquette policy]] from the [[WikiIndex_talk:Blocking_Policy|enforcement policy]]''', because "enforcing politeness" isn't always polite nor is is always practical at archiving its ends.

To resolve or set boundaries on conflict, I suggest we work with the community here to establish policies that attempt to reflect how they want this content filtered and organized. And that any policies be updatable (deletable) according to how the community changes. By definition, we can only reflect the will of editors (not those who only read without leaving feedback of some sort) but we may put up some messages welcoming suggestions or questions as to the policy, and leave these pages [[OpenEdit]] as long as possible.
