I can hardly think of an occasion when this
self-imposed policy failed
to reach a mutually acceptable balance. (details available on request
:-)
I think that the whole Wikipedia would do well
with expounded details of your success with this.
We all have a strong inclination *not* to let the @$$holes and trolls
(as it were) get away with anything for even a few hours;
to know that it consistently comes out OK in the end could be a big help.
