[edit] assume good faith

With the activity of meatpuppets and such like, I find the WP:AGF guideline thought provoking. An accusation of meat puppetry directly breaks the guideline, which tells one what to assume, and thus what to think. To think otherwise, to even suspect it, is not according to WP:AGF, it would seem. Jlittlenz 10:05, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

"Assume good faith" does not mean "All editors are always acting in good faith." It means "As long as a supposition of good faith is compatible with what's going on — as long as you can reasonably assume that another editor just disagrees with you, or is just figuring out how the system works, or just has bad English, or whatnot — you should continue to assume good faith and try to cooperate with that editor." —Ruakh_TALK 15:13, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
