[Foundation-l] Message to Fae
Does anyone feel that the Wikiquette is too weak to enforce the respect aspect of the five pillars? I wonder if we should make RFC/U a lot easier for cases where administrators show a pattern of not handling new editors very well. If [[WP:WQA]] had some teeth, say 3 reports against an admin and you have to go back to "admin school" (not necessarily the pillory of RFA) this might be a way of making some overly bullish admins think twice about their language and impression they give newbies. Cheers, Fae I think we have had trouble enforcing Wikiquette, however, I can't understand all the acronyms. Could you please translate your question into something more understandable and spelled out?

Fred, I'm guessing you are asking for the benefit of others on this non-en.wp focused list. RFC/U is a user conduct Request for Comments, WQA is a noticeboard for wikiquette alerts (basically, people go there to complain when someone else is rude), and RfA is the process by which people become administrators.

Oops, sorry Fred, On Wikipedia I have a nice acronym expanding script to make sure I don't get locked into jargon, particularly useful when explaining things to newer editors.

It's a WP USCRIPT at WP:TLA/TL:DR/TTP. DL it on the QT because it's TS and you'll get KP if found out. :P On 7 November 2011 16:10, Philippe Beaudette wrote: > On Mon, Nov 7, 2011 at 8:07 AM, Fae wrote: > > > Oops, sorry Fred, > > > > On Wikipedia I have a nice acronym expanding script to make sure I > > don't get locked into jargon, particularly useful when explaining > > things to newer editors. > > > > Cheers, > > Fae > > > > > > Uhm... where can I get that script? :) > > pb > ___ > Philippe Beaudette > Head of Reader Relations > Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. > > 415-839-6885, x 6643 > > phili...@wikimedia.org > ___ > foundation-l mailing list > foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org > Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l > -- Oliver Keyes Community Liason, Product Development Wikimedia Foundation ___ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l

Hi Philippe, I use an iMacro script, which is probably pretty geeky. Someone with a bit of JavaScript knowledge could probably find a way of getting it turned into a more maintable wiki user script.
