Is there a process somewhere of how the checking

https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Addshore/Identifiers but there's a
lot of discussion but not clear if it ever come to some end. Also not
clear what the process is - should I just move a property I like to
"good to convert"? Should I run it through some checklist first? Should
I ask somebody?
Yes. Good ones should be moved to good to convert. If no-one disagrees
we'll convert them.
So, no decision criteria? Just whatever we individually like?
What are the rules for "disputed" - is some process for review planned?
Let's concentrate on the ones people can agree on for now. We'll tackle
the ones that are disputed in the next step. If editors can't sort it out I
will make an executive decision at some point but I don't think this will
be needed.
I think the fact that some obvious good identifiers like IMDb have been
blocked has made potential contributors unsure how to evaluate other
candidates which would also, on the surface, seem obviously good.
Perhaps since the criteria aren't being used, someone could just delete all
the proposed criteria from the page and replace the old text with something
like "Whatever you, personally, think is best" so that people know what's
expected of them? That might help break the logjam. I know it would make me
more comfortable in contributing.
