If you're doing it already and nobody cares, it's probably fine. To repeat, the section on self merging is merely descriptive of the current situation. It has plenty of wiggle room to allow things that are happening already. I also want to emphasize that we're not going to suddenly revoke +2 access of a valued contributor for violating some narrowly interpreted clause in the policy. I can't speak for all situations or all committee members, but if someone complains that you shouldn't be doing a particular variety of self merges, the obvious outcome of that is to ask you to stop doing it. The policy defines an escalation path for complaints which allows them to be handled with common sense and without needless public humiliation. -- Tim Starling _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
