I disagree that divine intervention is a solution, but I agree with the principle that a productive editor who cannot collaborate is not a productive editor. Perhaps you and others can take a look at < http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Collaboration_first >, and put together a convincing essay to that effect. Convincing the silent majority to take a cohesive stance against such behaviour is one possible solution. -- Yours cordially, Jesse Plamondon-Willard (Pathoschild) _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
