::Regarding that, I struggled to find a good place to put it, and it doesn't seem like something that needs its own entire policy page. Perhaps the vandalism policy can be changed to bad faith, with vandalism being the top example, while also including broader examples of bad faith as a whole?

:::I think this is a decent solution as well... but I think it will need to go through sufficient drafting and revision as to the actual language. I think a big problem with making it a policy is that it's very much up to administrators' discretion, and that can be hard to convey, and may result in people issuing warnings "on our behalf" without it actually being problematic or threatening enforcement when we don't intend to take any. IMO it would be better suited to being a guideline... and also part of it falls under just general "wikiediquette" (do we have a page on this already? I don't see one). &ndash; [[User:Emmett|<span style="color:#000000">Emmett</span>]] 13:54, 24 October 2018 (EDT)
