[edit] Proposing a guideline
Question: I was thinking GWW could do with something equivilent to WP:BOLD[1]. Now, obviously, I have no objection to writing this up, but I'm a little unclear on whether we have any good place to discuss proposed guidelines before actually proposing them, and the actual policy seems a little unclear on that. Any thoughts? --Ari 17:52, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
- This is the place for proposals that are just vaugly imagined. Once you have something more concrete, make a draft and use it's talk page.
- I'd oppose such a guideline BTW. Whilst it is something I try to live by myself, different styles suit different personalities, and I dislike anything that acts to exclude. Backsword 21:45, 26 October 2007 (UTC)
- I'd say either writing up a draft or simply just start a discussion on the talk page of the "to be" guideline would be best. There isn't really a set way to go about drafting guidelines, since they are quite new here :)
As a side note, Backsword, how is a guideline like this excluding? - anja

- Haha, I was gonna say the same thing about it being a guideline, Anja. :) The point of a BB guideline is basically to encourage newcomers, especially those without any prior wiki experience, to be bold in making obvious changes, such as correcting information they've confirmed as outdated, spelling errors, typos, etc... I've seen a lot of such comments on talkpages that nobody's ever responded to, so I made the changes myself. Seems like a pretty good justification for Be Bold to me. Anyway, thanks for the advice, I will write it up in draft and make a new page soon. --Ari 14:25, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, it's drafted! Guild Wars Wiki:Be bold --Ari
