User:Mendel/Auron

I keep notes here. Feel free to use the talk page.

Auron: I want no policy discussion to happen until gw2 is out
 * 1) gwiki Chat log, around 8:00 UTC, 26 Sep 2008

just let it go based on sysops discretion entirely

however, once people know each other, they can make policies all they want

but i dont want it to be the focus when nobody has a clue what real consensus is

because nobody has a clue who anyone is or what they want

I don't want to be a bureaucrat on gw2w	throughout all of gw2's life

in fact, I want to promote someone within a week or two of the game coming out

but I also don't want the wiki to be [..] like GWW, where a bunch of new people jumped right into policy for no reason

mendel: can we quote you on that?

Auron: yes

post it all over your page

09:57, 12 June 2008 Auron bans Entropy and Destructive Elements for personal attacks, in Entropy's case more than 24 hours after the fact; 19 hours for DE.

If you examine User:M.mendel/FuckYou you'll note there is no precedent for "fuck you" banning more than 8 hours after the fact.

09:57, 12 June 2008 Auron banned Felix Omni and R.Phalange for "wiki disruption". The only other case I could find of "disruption" being used as the sole reason for a ban is 21:38, 25 January 2007 Barek (Talk | contribs) blocked @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ (Talk | contribs) with an expiry time of infinite ‎ (Disrupting the wiki)

The information inserted on Kurzick_refugee_settlement (the only edit by the Anon in that time, and it was reverted by Auron) was entirely correct. The user had never been banned before, and examining teh last 10 edits before the ban, the anon strikes me as inexperienced, but evidencing good faith.

There was a revert war going on for almost two hours on Legendary Sword (11 reverts by registered users against an anon) about inserting price information and the statement that the sword did not drop any more. Is this "obvious vandalism" that justifies breaking GW:1RV? None of the users were banned or even warned by Auron.

Entropy is still Bureaucrat, so she can technically declare an RfA failed, especially when it's met with 11 opposing and no supporting votes, and has been proposed by himself for a user who's been banned last week for "wiki disruption" by Auron himself.

No prior offense; a bit harsh?
