We should propose a civility patrol. It would not require anyone to be an admin and would just give people a heads up that they are being uncivil. No judgment on the validity of somebody's argument, just on its degree of civility. Possibly along with a "ticket" describing the degree of the incivility on a scale of 1 to 10 and maybe a description of its nature. -Ezra _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list WikiEN-l@lists.wikimedia.org To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
