[WikiEN-l] Dealing with crap deletion nominations

Some AFD regulars seem to view AFD/DRV as an independent fiefdom which
claims dominion over all Wikipedia content, but resists all comment from
outside (e.g. wikien-l) as interference. *Unfortunately*, it's been causing
real problems for the Foundation of late. Unbelievable rudeness about
outsiders, stupendously crap nominations to make a point, actively driving
away outside experts, etc.

Here is a suggestion: good faith is not enough when the good-faith actions
are stupidly destructive. Incivility on *FD = 24 hour ban from all *FD
pages and deletion of comment. Sufficiently crap nomination = 1 month ban
from all *FD pages.

Ideas?
