I suppose a
problematic example could be found on the borderland and discussed,
but I think it is best to solve the problem when it arises rather
than to make policy based on hypothetical examples. Perhaps this is
just my common law heritage speaking here...
I agree. Editorial judgement is ideally what we want being used in all
cases. Making policy satisfies those constitutionally unable to tolerate
ambiguity, but mostly it creates handy weaponry for querulous wikilawyers *
to try to use to get their way. [[Wikipedia is not]] a game of [[nomic]].

* as opposed to wiki lawyers, such as Fred ;-)
