Shane, what the heck is this about? "Policy Enforcement committee"? "Chairpersons"? What do you think is lacking in our current system that necessitates this draconian replacement? --Peter Farago 15:13, 14 May 2006 (CDT)

just throwing my ideas out. I had to run before I could finsh the page. --Shane (T - C - E) 20:29, 14 May 2006 (CDT)
Can't you raise this stuff on the wikipedian quorum first? Putting it in the Battlestar Wiki namespace makes it seem like it's already been decided, and leaves the rest of us feeling out of the loop. --Peter Farago 23:04, 14 May 2006 (CDT)
Honestly, I don't feel that chairpersons are really all that necessary... it just adds more felgercarb to deal with in the long run. On the other hand, since there's stuff on this page that hasn't been decided yet, it is best that you either move the current version of this page to your namespace under a subpage or bring this stuff up for discussion, as Peter suggests. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 08:12, 15 May 2006 (CDT)

Review

I am ready to submit this page of policy for review with the entire Wiki. --Shane (T - C - E) 21:03, 15 May 2006 (CDT)

The enforcement section seems unnecessary to me. We do not need a comittee to enforce our policies - all of the admin staff are familiar with them, and any user can file an RFC if an abuse has gone unremedied. The community here is very small, and in the few situations where a major dispute has come up (only, two incidents come to mind), a full vote of the community has been sufficient to resolve the matter.
The centralized list of policies is useful, however, as are instructions on proposing a policy. However, I still think users should be encouraged to raise ideas on the quorum and see if there's any kind of community support before putting together a proposed policy page. --Peter Farago 21:13, 15 May 2006 (CDT)
