I'm not sure that using the IRA to justify your actions for you is ever a good idea!
my statement should have read "Good anyone who needs IRA to justify their actions should not have carried them out in the first place."
I was referring to [[IRA]], not [[WP:IAR]]. I was attempting levity. I shan't try again...
Well the IRA do have a long history of ignoreing policy.
WP:BOLD does not apply to admin actions.~~~~
No, but its spirit (as in, don't spend ages discussing where you could just cut to the chase and do it).

Whatever they are calling VFU these days doesn't take that long to go through.
I was contesting your statement in principle, not in specifics.

If something would end up takeing very large amounts of discussion you must conclude that: a) it isn't going to be popular in which case you shouldn't be doing it b)there are some problem users in which case something needs to be done about those users c)you are not very good at proposeing things In which case I would advise against trying to use [[WP:IRA]] (since you are going to need very good interpersonal skills to pick things up afterwards if things go wrong).
