How shall we edit pages?[edit]

  • "You can edit this page right now" is a core guiding check on everything that we do. We must respect this principle as sacred.

I suggest that a sacred principle would read better as follows:

  • Please feel free to edit pages in thoughtful, conscientious, and respectful manner to continuously improve them. Our overarching goal is to make our content better and better all the time.

I could just nuke the "respect this principle as sacred" part. It's kind of redundant and vaguely sacrilegious. Auggie 13:00, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
  • Please give some thought to the alternative wording suggested in the second bullet, above. Moulton 12:21, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Sure, why not. Might as well not use Jimmy's words. Auggie 16:04, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
