It would be nice to have a committee to say, regarding the most intractable sorts of questions, that one thing seems generally preferable and one thing seems contrary to such and such basic principle. I think ideally this would not be something with any kind of teeth, but just an advisory committee that people would more or less agree to adhere to. If they didn't, then I think that would make these cases more clearly behavioral in nature (in an indirect sort of way) and more easily dealt with by the ArbCom. Those are just some thoughts off the top of my head after reading what Raul wrote.
97:, is dragging close to a month now, with almost nothing happening lately, and I have to admit I am dissapointed in RfC. In such a simple case, why a decision cannot be made in less then one week? I am afraid to think how long decisions must take in more 'grey' situations, if simple banning of a permanent vandal and his IP range with no objections takes close to (or longer then...?) a month. --

The case I was involved in is a part of the broader differences of opinion between inclusionists and deletionists. These disputes get very heated at times and really go to the very heart of what
Knowledge (XXG) is as an encyclopedia, yet the resolutions we arrive at are often clumsy and inconsistent.

I think that's less than ideal, and something of a stopgap remedy where a more direct and effective approach could be imagined. It might have been more effective, in a case where nobody was breaking any rules, but tensions were clearly at an intolerable level, to have a committee to take a look at

The real problem is lack of civility in the discussion. The solution is much simpler than many of the dicussions above - more frequent and broader use of specific subject matter bans, based on behavior. We should continue to use behavior as the barometer, one revert a day for 2 weeks is just as

Whoa, this is long. It kind of impairs legibility of the entire discussion. There are over a dozen proposals up to now, and several of them have apparently been discounted because too many people think it's not a good idea. Maybe those should be moved to some archive page, so we can focus on

I think in general this is a good idea and something that needs to be done. I'll take my own example because I know it better than any others: I was involved in a content dispute and I was punished for that by the ArbCom even though there was really no rational reason for punishment, since I

egregious as 3RR. We should not rely on subject matter experts the opinions of those in the field are easily available. No one or two (or ten editors) will hold back the work that needs to be done - and those that can not compromise and consensus build should work on other things.
