== Demos (the people) voted on the definition of consensus ==

As per [[Wiktionary:Votes/pl-2022-09/Meaning of consensus for discussions other than formal votes created at Wiktionary:Votes]]. The more lofty citizens, the special right holders, known as administrators, mostly did not edit the vote page, exceptions being TheDaveRoss and Vininn126. --[[User:Dan Polansky|Dan Polansky]] ([[User talk:Dan Polansky|talk]]) 07:22, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

== Handling block evader Wonderfool ==

Handling block evader Wonderfool should be much easier than the project makes it seem. A key element of the handling is an intentional causing of displeasure to the person, while allowing the person to return if they pledge to stop using multiple accounts and pledge to stop inserting incorrect information. A key element is the reduction of ''social standing'' of the editor to the minimum. Tolerating Wonderfool the way it is being done is far from harmless.

Principles:
* Once Wonderfool is identified, the user account shall be blocked immediately.
* Alternatively:
** Wonderfool shall be prohibited from participation in RFD, something he likes to do.
** Wonderfool shall be prohibited from creating votes, something he likes to do.
** A public profile of Wonderfool shall be created, stating key signs of being a Wonderfool. One of the signs would be languages he likes to edit. Other editing patterns shall be stated, like the two above. The profile shall serve as a public administration asset.
Once the alternative is implemented, a Wonderfool's new user will disclose himself by starting to make low-quality RFD nominations and by asking fairly many people if they want to become admins.

A question is whether this will lead to too much suspicion about new user accounts. Not necessarily. So long as a new user account behaves reasonably and well, any suspicion of being Wonderfool may be suspended until it becomes relevant.
