[edit] Administuff

It seems to me that splitting editing and admin duties make sense. That is, don't exercise admin rights over articles one is editing, and don't make content edits to articles on which one is taking administrative action. It seems that following this simple rule would keep admins out of most sorts of trouble.

[edit] Quotes

  • "Why is this thus? What is the reason for this thusness?" ~ Artemis Ward
  • "We will return, if you please, to history, to solid, believable, verifiable fact!" ~Professor Binns, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling

[edit] Important Definitions

These three may be difficult to differentiate. Policy dictates we must assume good faith. Therefore, when communicating with the editor of inexplicable content, assume he or she is an idiot - and hope they do the same.

  • Vandal: someone who deliberately makes a mess of an article
  • Troll: someone who acts like an idiot to mess with editors
  • Idiot: like a troll, but without the acting part

[edit] NPOV

Hypothesis: "Ugly is POV"
Test:

  1. Truth is NPOV
  2. The truth can be ugly

Conclusion: Ugly satisfies NPOV when it is true.

[edit] Vandals beware
