Involved, Neutral Admins
I think there is a need to have involved admins - not involved in edit warring or other nationalist sparring and gaming of WP, but admins who are knowledgeable enough to look not only at obvious behavior issues, but also the role of extremist or fringe sources in rekindling disputes.

 * There's certainly no restriction on involved admins providing their input into the process; but I think it's reasonable to have the ultimate decision on whether to impose sanctions rest in the hands of someone without a stake in the outcome of the underlying content disputes.

 * I mean beyond this case. I think these conflicts have festered in part for lack of attention by neutral, knowledgeable admins. Jd2718 (talk) 03:57, 17 November 2007 (UTC)


 * I think part of the problem is that the editing environment is so hostile that most editors, admin or not, find better things to do with their time. --Ronz (talk) 04:52, 21 November 2007 (UTC)
