its continued use determined for the future, we are taking a break from using it. Perhaps a break in the wide public discussion is a good idea and we can have some talk page discussions while developing a proposal at a somewhat less public page (though equally accessible), and I of course want in on that project. Cenarium's timeframe of a compromise proposal for August gives us a few months to work out the flaws in the system, and both supporters and opposers alike who have an interest can help develop a proposal. I would have said two months is enough, giving July, but I realize there are only a few days after two months from right now and it's August, so I do think trying to propose again in August is viable. However, whatever led to the trial not having a proper ending before (I recall it was still being newly added to articles in April, in fact) shouldn't occur again, and I would hope a clause for continuing it past September where it seems to be the best solution on a per page analysis be permitted in certain cases. perhaps including the two pages that Scott was so concerned about. Of course, if pending changes works much better this time around, it may not be necessary to do this and we can have it finally implemented fully. As for the way to do the future trial, I'm open to suggestions.

to each other in much the same way a music discography moves through albums in order via an album's infobox. We can rename pages later if we need to in order to eliminate the redundant title (it's now May, not February). As for where to go from here: if we take a break as opposers to PC above have stated, that will merely support their view that PC should not and cannot be implemented. The best thing to do now is to seek a way forward. In other words, we should take all the guidelines and evaluate them. Clearly a new page is required for this task. After we get guidelines that everyone involved can agree with (if that's even possible), we can propose it to the community. Perhaps that will give those not as invested a chance to stop thinking about it and approach it with a fresh perspective. Don't get me wrong; I will always support PC, because I have seen it work. We just need to ensure we have a better system for using it as there were things that I also found needed changing.
3455:
question. THAT I disagree with. Whether people like it or not, at some point, there will be another PC. It's one of those things that won't go away. And until it's decided how we're going to go about gathering reviewers for that new PC run, there's no point hurriedly rushing to remove the reviewer flag from those who already have it. What if we did that and PC were then turned back on on 10,000 articles tomorrow? Admins. would go crazy with no reviewers to help out. Granted, this situation is extremely unlikely, as we've been discussing on this page how to pick reviewers for the next cycle; that is, an application procedure or reviewing existing reviewers. It's easiest to pick out existing reviewers if we leave the flag in place. So while that option is on the table, is there really any harm in leaving the flag where it is?
3427:
came along and gave me the userright, I did for a second think I had been recognized for something, but on reading, no; it was merely to help test out a new feature being considered for Knowledge (XXG). I could have said no and gone about my daily life. But I didn't, I said yes. Not for the "bauble", not because I thought it gave me some sort of prestige, but because I knew it would give me a chance to do two things: try out a new feature and also do something good for the encyclopedia by joining the fight against vandals. Did I do both? Oh yeah. Do I now see this "reviewer" tag as anything more than a piece of text that means absolutely nothing? Hell no. However, without more context, I don't follow the point of your post above, so I'll just conclude that you were merely disagreeing with the candy comment.
828:, it would seem that Level 2 protection added to semi-protection would provide enough defense against similar attacks. If Bambifan were to use the same technique, he'd be free to edit, but they wouldn't be visible until a reviewer-equipped editor checked the work, increasing his chance of exposure and being blocked when his pattern is recognized. Similarly, the amount of time needed to build up confidence from an admin to add reviewer rights to his account (and thus permit unlimited carnage until he were blocked again) might be so long that he simply gets bored with waiting and decides to, basically, go and bug someone else. 2353:
responsible people. Absent that, the intent of using PC to aid our BLP policy will be made a mockery by mindless acceptance of edits. Since, as of today, the reviewer flag confers absolutely nothing, and it won't until such time as PC comes back, my advice would be to go back to being boring here. In other words, removing the flag is a solution in search of a problem (for now). But, and this is important, proposals for PC rebirth are going to have to have a clear plan as to who will or will not be able to review pending edits, and the qualifications are going to have to take into account a serious regard for BLP concerns.
583:
community has become too tired of PC for now, we need to wait for a while. The proposal was to remove PC, there was no exception, the extent of the closer's discretion does not include any line-item veto. The plan had always been for admins to use their discretion in the transition with all due regards to article and protection specifics and in accordance with the protection policy. This situation escalated because of one admin who didn't want to hear consensus. It is high time to put an end to this and get on with business as usual; and when enough time will have passed, we'll be able to reconsider the use PC.
2359:
to request to be reviewers, with the right determined by administrators (as rollback is). In this case, users who are to be made reviewers must (1) have a degree of trust as editors comparable to what we expect of rollbackers, and (2) demonstrate, further, an understanding of BLP (we will need to figure out how exactly that understanding would be demonstrated). No one should be made a reviewer unless they ask to be (a big difference from what happened before!). There also needs to be a mechanism for removal of reviewer rights when those rights are misused. --
1351:, or reviewing AfDs, and so on. I'm not saying it's right, I'm just saying that if another trial were to be proposed, it must be clear who is going to be in charge of removing it when it's over; in other words, oversee the trial. If a trial is not preferred even with such guarantees, then yes, we must seek a way to allow PC to be turned on permanently. Failing to do so lets down the community, especially when sensitive BLP articles are unable to take advantage of it. What BLP will next appear in 68: 368:
proposal will be refined and discussed and after that break/discussion/proposal tweak a final accept or reject proposal can be presented for RFC. I am also hopeful that the accept or reject RFC on usage will gain only comments as to the value or lack of value of the tool through users experience and/or usage of the tool and not users thoughts and opinions as to the trial. As in - RFC - please comment on the tool and not the trial.
31: 816:. These articles have been, in many cases, placed on indefinite semi-protection due to his activities, but this latest assault showed a new technique that semi-protection couldn't block. An anon IP (quite possibly Bambifan himself) made innocuous edits to these articles, which the new Bambifan sock (created 5 days earlier, but with no activity) would then revert, boosting his edit count to the point where he would reach 123: 2967:'lesser' right) just so there will be a 'skeleton crew' in case of reactivation. New reviewers should have to be picked based on new guidelines if ever, and anyone wishing to regain the right reapply for it (and I favor stricter rules for choosing reviewers given the sensitive nature of their responsibilities). I'm still hoping to see a workable version of PC implemented that is 3549:, let alone what standards they must follow, contributed to the last test's failure. I would say, strip the reviewer rights now, and then, if there is a future !vote that leads to some future trial, allow all the voters to have the right, unless you formally adopt more restrictive standards on who should be allowed to have it before conducting that vote. 391:
a full month, that it be commenced quite shortly. If we wait until late June, the RfC will be a bit of a flop by any standards of seeking participation. Let's get it started - it will not be over until nearly the end of June in any case. Again, I ask that you do the honours. "If 'twere done when 'tis done, 'tis well, It were done quickly." Cheers.

which came up in discussions during a period that Knowledge (XXG) sought donations. Having less on this page reduces server load on this page, and PC has taken more than its fair share of server load in three months of discussions. Let's properly archive Phase 3 like the others, then those interested in seeing further information can do so.

exception, to routinely substitute PC for semiprotection. On the other hand, there still seem to be people who think that it would be better for a handful of articles to be full-protected than for them to be on a PC status. If that is consensus, so be it, but it still strikes me as odd and I would still welcome someone's explaining it.
3174:
testing cycles on it, including one in July (and sporadically over the two months if I saw something obvious), but because I was usually one of multiple editors to reach a PC edit, I often ended up being behind another editor, so it might not show as 50 for me and I would hate not being given a chance to test it again. =)

see that you aren't a reviewer (or rollbacker), so I've made you one." And this on the talk page of a user who is seriously disruptive, with warnings and such in plain view above and below, and I've seen it multiple times. I certainly don't mean to impugn everyone who was made a reviewer without asking to be one. --

but I was concerned that to a certain extent it might also reflect that the RfC closure and my request for additional input was underpublicized. I am also concerned that the latter situation still has not been addressed (although I do not anticipate using this as a basis for extending the deadline another time).
1171:. OK, so there has been a little more organisation to it than that, but do you see what I mean? Perhaps if we admitted that we can't be massively organised that would also help. PC has had many attempts to structure the discussion, which have got so far before it starts to look like a bit like chaos. 1100:- any improvements welcome... actually I think there is no need for the pural as we have already got got quite close to a proposal and although we are going to discuss and tweak , there is only going to be one actual proposal. - I also removed future - do we need that - its just a proposal for usage..? 265:- There is no requirement for a break of any kind. In fact I see a six month break request as simply turning this unconditional to future use end of trial into a never for ever situation. IMO we should get this over with - lay out what there is possible consensus for and poll it in the near future - to 3194:
You know, all the worry about people "misusing" PC has me a bit mystified. I've never seen a diff of an actual, obvious problem. I've seen things that were approved (as not vandalism) and then reverted (as good-faith efforts that didn't improve the article), but that was the recommended (though not
2921:
mabdul, your comment confuses me. It sounds like you are referring to two accounts that are socks reviewing each others' edits; this would not work, they would eventually be caught. Malleus, are you saying in your comment near the start of this chain that people should not have the rollback right?
2792:
Actually, my argument makes perfect sense, though my way of stating it was a little opaque. Essentially, why take the right from responsible users (rollbackers and autoreviewers) when the program is likely to have a retrial anyway, thus creating pointless admin work to give it back. Having a skeleton
2677:
But your argument is flawed in that it is based purely on following bureaucratic procedure. Knowledge (XXG) is not an Anarchy, or a Bureaucracy. And remember, rollback is given only to trusted users, so why should we assume that their reviews would be anything less than acceptable? 00:52, 8 June 2011

being used to hold another RfC. That RfC was about removing PC from current pages without prejudice against restarting it later if the consensus is to do so. Most of the comments in that RfC were about continuing a trial without consensus. A new RfC for something else entirely should have a fresh new

version of the software was put into place. I don't understand any logical reason for a person to hold a "button" that had no "function". If someone held such an ability during the "trial", and can point to being competent in it's use, then fine .. by all means feel free to mention the fact at any
3248:
Getting back to that suggestion about people who made more than a certain number of past reviews, a problem to be careful of is that there may have been people who made large numbers of reviews, but did so contrary to the guidelines (such as they were), as in accepting or rejecting indiscriminately.
2988:
If memory serves, admins don't have the reviewer userright, just like they don't have the rollbacker userright, because it's automagically part of the admin bits. (And that reminds me: I turned off rollback in Twinkle last week, but it came back to haunt me again. I've got to go figure out what's
2358:
Yaris, very sensibly, has asked here for calm suggestions about how to, in effect, formulate such a plan. My suggestion: when PC comes back, all reviewer flags get removed at the start (otherwise, there will simply be too many "children" to weed out), and we set up, as last time, a process for users
1317:
I support seeking a consensus to turn PC (possibly with modifications) back on for good. I strongly oppose any further trials. There is zero reason for anyone to believe that this or any other trial will end when promised. Nobody in authority has stepped up to the plate and announced that allowing a

Let's take a break. We'll see clearer on how to proceed after a while and the community is too tired of discussing PC at the moment. We'll also have less active editors in July/August. So I'd suggest to prepare a compromise proposal with usage policy in August-September, and a community consultation

that we wait any set period of time - ndeed he noted that some might like a short break. If we do not resolve this shortly, we will enter an exceedingly quiet time historically for Knowledge (XXG) (from late June through August, many folks disappear) and so I would suggest that since an RfC runs for

3283:
I like the latter idea better. I do think it should be an admin., or someone trustworthy who is appointed by an admin., who does these reviews of current reviewers. If we do an application process, it will turn into a huge game of wonkery and, also, some good people currently flagged as reviewers
3173:
I would add one more exception: users who have been active, either for or against, in these discussions regarding PC and have an interest one way or another in what happens to it. That way, if it gets trialed again, those interested users can also keep testing. I know I spent at least three solid

Any new implementations of PC will probably be substantially different from the trial version. As such, the trial version's method of picking reviewers will not apply. The users selected were screened far less comprehensively given that expanding the experimental group (quantity over quality) still
2664:
The flaw in your argument is that you believe without proof that Rollbackers and so on did indeed do "many good reviews", just because they had some other unassociated user right(s). I could review all of you reviewers to Hell and back, but I don't want your shiny baubles. Ajraddatz is quite right.

Having a reasonable group of users with the power on day one means that you can move over a reasonable number of articles to pending changes on day one without having to rush people through approval, or creating a backlog, or having to be extremely conservative about how many articles you add it to
1954:
Frankly, I'm not happy with it. I would ask rather if SlimVirgin has any reason why the discussion below should NOT be archived. If we're summarizing two phases of the RfC and linking out, then all three should be treated the same way. It also helps from a server load time perspective, something
1288:
I should further clarify my above post. I do not want to take a break from developing PC into something that the community can widely accept. I do note that an end has been brought to usage of PC, however, for the time being, thus forcing a break in usage of PC. While there is no clear method of

I fight sockpuppetry as my primary activity, and think that Bambifan101's obsession with "The Fox and the Hound" constitutes an extreme corner case that would be hard to base policy on. I had taken the unusual step of long-term full-protection on the article, which was overriden and reduced to PC.
204:
9. Regarding where the discussion goes from here, I'd still welcome thoughts on whether my outline for the next wave of RfCs is helpful or not, or what might do better. I also note NuclearWarfare's suggestion that we take a break before the next round of discussion; but others seem to be saying the

5. I am keenly aware that in the two weeks of input on the original closure, no one came to this page suggesting a specific BLP on which continued protection might have been warranted. To a large extent, this may reflect consensus that the current version of PC is not a good solution to BLP issues,

3. Given that the task of carefully evaluating the articles that were still under PC as of Friday had obviously not been completed, I see nothing controversial in my extending the deadline by a week. The alternative would have been simply to remove the PC on all the remaining articles by pressing a

2. Any implication that either my original closing or my additions to it on Friday were affected by lobbying by Jimbo Wales, the Foundation, or other arbitrators, is completely unfounded. There has been no such lobbying of any kind. In addition, my closure here has nothing to do with my arbitration

Malleus, I do not agree with your analogy. I am not a native, first off; I am a valued (more or less) contributor to this Wiki. I do not collect baubles, for I see little point in them (unless they could be converted to Canadian dollars, in which case I'd find them interesting). When Courcelles

CycloneGU, that's very reasonable, and makes me realize that I should clarify what I said, sorry. I've noticed, from time to time, that I have gone to talk pages of disruptive users and been dismayed to see a thread saying something like: "Gee, I've looked at your contributions and am surprised to

Remove the rights! What happens if (and some propose) PC get a new trial, then the interface and the policy will be likely changed and maybe totally different! The (old) reviewer have to read the policy new. Maybe the bar will also be higher than it was actual in the last trial. What happens, if a

Perhaps all we need to do to address my concerns about loosing the other phases is to expand on the ambox currently summarising the RfC at the top of the page. I think that the endorsement of positions thing has a lot of valuable stuff in it that people might not realise is there if they see "The

I though there was some crossed purposes commenting there. As for the break - Perhaps, I am looking at around one month discussion to tweak and present the proposal which is not so straight away as to have a chilling effect, at least I don't think so. At the most, a six week break during which the

Second that. A break will give everyone time to calm down and think about what is the best way to proceed. I would also suggest that when this comes up again a better title be chosen than "Request for Comment February 2011" and that the location of the new discussion be publicized with a notice on
3454:
I have not argued that, as of right now, the "reviewer" flag (I don't consider it a "right") is useless. I can't use it in any way to have some kind of editing privilege at this present time. However, I believe the substance of your argument is that it should be taken away from everyone without

I happen to have had a piece of candy handed to me. Is that so bad? It turns out that decision wasn't entirely disasterous, either...an admin. saw edits of mine somewhere, determined I was a competent user, and invited me to test the feature. I tested, liked it, and have supported it since. I

And to think I was just about to un-watchlist this page in the belief that it had stopped being interesting! I think, indeed, that the reviewer flag was given out far too casually last time (not to me, of course!), and any reinstatement of PC will require that the people who can make decisions be
1857:
Agree. Another thing to consider is that, at times, the discussion bounced back and forth between project and talk page, with no clear delineation between the two. Late in the game, some discussion was moved onto a talk page, but I was looking back through histories and archives the other day and

While maybe not enough to create policy (just yet), that's precisely why PC2+Semi should be tried on a limited basis, to see if it does protect against such vandals. Yes, full-protection would indeed eliminate them, but it also would prevent editors who are working to improve the article (such as

Any article can be protected from inappropriate edits by full page protection; the problem is that the article is then "protected" from good edits as well, since relatively few editors (and no new editors) will go to the trouble of making an edit request (or even know how to do it). Here's what I

If there is something I am considering changing in my own proposal it is the use of the term "BLP-related". You could argue that it should be considered for any article subject to attack by sleeper accounts, which is bordering on consideration for full-protection... its just that the majority of

8. On the merits of the issue, I gather the reason there is strong opposition to even a limited BLP exception to ending the trial (other than repeated chants of "the trial is over! the trial is over!") is fear that it would be overutilized. I agree that it would not be in order, under any form of

7. "BLP" is not a catchphrase that, by intoning it, automatically supersedes all our policies, norms, and community decision-making. On the other hand, the group of issues that we collectively categorize as "BLP" go beyond the internal dynamics and politics of our project, because the contents of

Meanwhile, my opinion; it's useless now. Once we're ready to move forward with PC again (where are the discussions of the trial's policies that need to be fleshed out, BTW?), we can do a review of the userright and where it should be removed. I agree reviewers should have a higher standard for
597:
Pretty much ditto with Cenarium (presuming that I'm not the "one admin" he refers to). We'll have to wait a while. I think it's a shame that this botched trial prevented a defective but promising feature that needed some revision from ever getting revised into something worthwhile. In a while, a

Sithman, TelCoNaSpVe, I'm pretty sure that Newyorkbrad is talking about a break after removal of PC and before seeking consensus to reinstate it, not about keeping PC on any articles during the break. Off2riorob, if we jump right back into discussion without a cooling off period, there is a good
2155:
I don't think there's any advantage to doing this. While PC is not in use, the right is useless, but harmless. However, if you remove it now, and PC is adopted for regular use later (which seems likely to me), then you create a bunch of needless make-work for admins. I'd view it as a pointy,

Phase 3 should be permanently archived at Archive 3. The first two phases are archived at Archive 1 and Archive 2 already, and keeping Phase 3 on the main RFC page gives it more prominence than the first two phases. Closure should be the thing getting the most prominence, then the rest can be

This is well known of all, but the community rejected PC nonetheless. If you want some 'exceptions' then you will need to have the whole debate started anew, which policy, which standards, which articles, etc, and get consensus for it. I estimate the chance of success at the moment to zero, the

to review. Unless we somehow archive who were the reviewers before complete removal, we lose that information and perhaps make somebody do a lot of work to restore it, if that's the ultimate decision. So, I'm leaning towards option 2 in the long term, but option 3 might make sense for now — PC
722:
Also - I'm confused, what is happening here, NY Brad. Is the 'closure' of the RfC finished with? It doesn't seem over. In which case, surely, you shouldn't be putting forward your opinions on the actual debate (until after it is closed, and we can move on to fresh discussion, fresh proposals).
3398:
I don't think your candy analogy works. I've never been a reviewer and I never wanted to be a reviewer, largely because I saw the process as handing out baubles to win over the natives, the overwhelming majority of whom were actually having a right removed. And baubles, just like the reviewer
3249:
The more I think about this, the more I think that no one should be kept from before. Instead, better guidelines for reviewing need to be worked out first. Then would-be reviewers can apply (or re-apply), and the trial shouldn't be started until there are enough of them. First things first. --
3042:
A note of interest; I gained the rollback userright after being given the reviewer userright. I'm sure others had this order, as well. This came about during my effort to get the Australian PM's article (Julia something) semi-protected on the day she won the nomination due to an increase in

It was ill-considered and poorly implemented if that's what you mean. But we are already seeing these (in this case inactive) rights touted as a reason to trust an editor at RfA for instance. Removing this one may go a small way to restoring some sanity in that god-forsaken slough of despond.
831:
Bambifan is hardly the only persistent sockpuppeteer on the project, so perhaps this combination defense (semi-protection plus Level 2 pending) may be useful for articles that are targets of such characters but also have a cadre of diligent editors who are not admins, and thus couldn't edit a

While I can envision some sort of PC in the future, I'd have to imagine that it would be quite different than the "trial" that recently concluded. As such, anyone who would want such "rights" or rather "privileges" for any new version should be required to show an understanding of whatever

6. On the other hand, at least one of our administrators with an enormous amount of experience in dealing with sensitive BLP issues opined on his talkpage that there indeed are serially vandalized BLP articles on which PC should continue to be used, and where neither semiprotection nor full

That would be fine with me. My concern throughout this trial was that there were so many pages that discussions got lost, so there was no sense of continuity or progress. We all seemed to be saying the same things over and over. Providing links to it all in one place would be very helpful.

The reason I've suggested letting people with rollback keep the right is because I think that its highly likely pending changes will be implemented in some form, even if that's just for articles which would otherwise have to be indefinitely semi/fully protected. So removing it from users

If you - or anyone - would like to propose it, then propose it. Seek consensus. The problem here is, 'consensus' is being invented, instead of sought. (No offence intended; of course, comments are welcome. I'm just trying to emphasize - any such proposals to use PC are...well, proposals)
188:). To my dismay, this admin opined that my closure discussion was too long to read, and he declined to come to this page to present his opinion, which therefore was not responded to by others who have strongly opposing views. I did not, however, think it made sense simply to ignore it. 223:
I agree completely with NW. We need a break with PC for some time, the community has become really tired of it. Let's just apply the arbcom injunction blindly, then see which protection level is needed for articles with all due regard to the article specifics and in accordance with

Unless there is some good reason why rollback users won't be generally trusted with review powers there doesn't seem any reason to take it away from them, taking it away from other users is a simple was to allay the fear that it may have been handed out inappropriately. --

Can you guess how I view your opposition to the removal of a right that no longer exists in practice? I'll give you a clue; none of the words consist of more than four letters except for an odd "-ing" to help ease the flow. How desperately some fight to keep such "rights".
954:
Yes - PC is unable to be requested at all - the trial is over. Users that support the tool for some kind of ongoing usage can help to lay out the definitions for its usage over the next couple of weeks and get their hands out of their pockets and support its accepted use.

whether there might be consensus for a narrow exception to the existing consensus to end the PC trial that my original closure had recognized. At the moment, it certainly appears that the answer will probably be no, but I make absolutely no apology for asking the question.
2771:
Ronk, I believe that Malleus was attempting to point out how your argument makes no sense and has little relevance to this discussion. For one thing, how does rollback = reviewer? If that were the case, wouldn't the reviewer rights be in the rollback group? Also, why does
3481:
PC has too much support for it to be "absolutely impossible" to suggest again, Malleus, even with the nature of the trial and Scott Mac's behavior post-trial. I suspect we'll be seeing a suggestion virtually similar with what got rejected in about a year or 18 months.
1346:
TBH, I think the reason it went on - and on, and on, and on - is because no one bothered to do the work to remove PC from everywhere on August 16. It wasn't causing any damage and there were better and more important things to do, like modifications to an article on

I can see why you might want to start with a clean sheet, but I can also see a case for evolution rather than revolution. Either way, there is potential for drama on the issue. Let's try to calmly state the reasons for and against the idea before starting an RfC.

RfA (or future request for some permission). My car has an automatic transmission, so why would I want to have a "clutch peddle" installed sort of thing. There is no use for the "rights", remove the superfluous fluff from project. It's not a degrading insult to
2541:
Ditto, Seb. I don't see any reason to remove reviewer rights from anyone when PC is (at present) only disabled, not rejected. If the last poll on it was the final word on it, so to speak, I'd support (as the userright would be deprecated) but that isn't the case.
2840:
I saw "reviewers" let edits through that should have been undone (by rollback), so I'm not really comfortable with the notion that all "rollbackers" should automatically have "reviewer" - and that's even assuming the "reviewer" right was re-enabled in some form.
2714:
I'm sorry that you feel that way, perhaps this kind of behavior explains your many blocks, and failed RfA's. There is no reason to stoop to ad homenim attacks in a discussion like this, it simply points to the weakness of your argument, and your debating skills.

Personally I'd suggest removing reviewer rights from everyone who doesn't have rollback. That keeps a good stock of people with the user right and it seems highly unlikely that users with rollback won't be allowed to keep their reviewer rights. --

The third phase was only started so that we could get the short-term issue out of the way and so discuss the longer-term issues in a more calm manner. Leaving the page as it is gives the false impression that this RfC was all about the short-term
1509:
I was archiving the third phase of the RfC, as discussed above. I think all three phases of the RfC should be given equal prominence, now that they are all closed. Summarising each one, as I was trying to do, seemed like the fairest way to do
1000:
Cool. I think my using more concrete terms has had the desired effect and got the issues in the open. It looks like some people like the idea of using PC in this way but that it would require consensus in the same way as any other form of PC.

The third phase may have been decisive, but it was only decisive about the short-term issue. The RfC as a whole is about the wider issues of PC. What people said in phases one and two will have more import on the longer-term issues of

However, the arguments aren’t identical and I think the idea is an interesting one and warrants attention at some point, separate from the wider PC issue. However, I don’t think now would be a good time, when everyone has PC fatigue.

Brad asked for comments on the idea of exceptions for some BLPs. I think part of the problem is that it hasn't been clear what this means. I would like to propose that if there are to be any exceptions it should be like this:

No sense in taking the right from Rollbackers, Autoreviewers, and other users who did many good reviews only to give it back to them when we re implement PC. Take it from all others though, that should mediate the Willy-Nilly.
1004:
My own judgement on it is that PCL2+semi could be handy but that the arguments over PCL2+semi vs full are similar to those over PCL1 vs semi. I don’t see a particular need to go through them all again in the immediate future.
1405:
Hell no on another trial. After a short break(no more than a month or two), we'll need to write up permanent guidelines on when to use and when not to use PC and get that going as an RFC. Ideally that will be the final step.
3233:
I don't believe that is the type of problem he is referring to. He means a problematic PC usage that ended in disaster, not a problem with a user trying to cling onto a perceived "power" (since this is in no way "power").

considered its use in the short term. In accordance with consensus it was removed from all articles on Friday, 20 May 2011, with no prejudice against future reinstatement, in some form, based upon consensus and discussion.

That's right; @(whoever you are, where is your sig?): why should we assume that rollbackers are OK by default and everybody else has been screwing up all the time? Either remove it from everybody or have everybody keep it.
1530: 1186: 138: 1063:
Instead of "proposal for accepted usage", I would suggest "proposals for future usage" as I am sure several disparate proposals will be made, and "accepted" would be obvious for any adopted proposals. Reasonable enough?

You may assume whatever you like, but it would be better for you to address the substance of my argument, which is that this "right" is redundant. The only ones arguing for its retention are those who collect baubles.

One of the problems with the trial is that no one could work out what was going on because there were so many pages, and it was all very hard to follow. I'm opposed to any more refactoring in part for that reason. :)

Because the argument that people only want to keep reviewer rights for themselves if they think some people should keep it becomes far weaker when the person making that point doesn't have the user-right. --
971:
Shit, I was wildly unclear. I mean that if we allow Pending Changes to be used again then it could be requested through RfPP for these edge cases. I don't think another trial is needed for this edge case. --

Admins. should be assumed to read the new policy; honestly, it should be required reading, and they should not use the tool, period, until they've read it, because it cannot be easily taken away from them.

I'd completely support removing the reviewer group now, since it is useless. Its only use now is for people to have the "I'm a reviewer!" userbox on their page, which really isn't a good reason to keep it.

The above is my attempt to make something more concrete, based on what Brad was talking about. I probably will propose it in an RfC, but I thought I would ask if anyone had any thoughts on the idea first.
1884:
I think the only slightly confusing issue now is that one of the archived talk pages has a discussion of a phase 3 that never happened. We decided to have the short-term-use proposal instead-of/before

Good point. If a specific person or group of people is assigned to end a trail before a specified date - with defined sanctions to be applied if they fail to do so - a trial would be acceptable.
