The community is fairly robust. The productive community especially so. The idiots will eventually get their asses kicked. This trivial drama does not have especially major impact where it matters, no will it. A sense of proportion is required. Life goes on.

[[WP:ENC]] has got completely forgotten in all this. Sidaway's civility, Wikipedia Review, SlimVirgin's cabalistic tendencies, Lar's checkusers...who cares? Our job as admins is to maintain the encyclopedicity of the site, not to play silly political games. That seems to have been lost sight of. If you're not doing maintaining encyclopedicity, then what good are you doing?
I've been trying to do more of this the last few months.
Sticking my head in the sand and hoping that the dumb politics would go away didn't work. I advise the rest of you not to ignore it either. This is bad for the community. It needs to stop.
