reasonable ideas in this proposal, but the second level escalation path
should follow inside of the appropriate local scopes.
I'm cautious about explicitly assigning a global ban role to WMF as a part
of a community policy; having WMF police the community is a cause of
concern after WMF's previous actions like Superprotect.
The draft policy does not assign WMF that right. They already have it,
and global bans already apply to technical spaces.
I like the point someone made in this discussion about the distiction
between legislating policy and making social change.
Social change and policy change go hand and hand. A healthy society is
governed by both policy and social custom, which flow into each other.
This is the policy part of it.
