Absolutely. The WMF hosts the lists, so has a veto, but generally policy should be entirely determined by the users. Mods interpreting that policy can result in what is essentially new policy, though. (The same happens in law - judges often create new law when judging a specific case.) > As well the group should be able to know what *policy-based* actions are > being taken and why. > > Shining light on moderator actions, ensures that moderators take action that > is fair, impartial, and applied evenly across the entire group. For the most part, I agree. I can imagine situations where it is best to keep things quiet, but they would be very rare. _______________________________________________ WikiEN-l mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe from this mailing list, visit: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikien-l
