It's not my job to seek out and destroy any who violates written
policy. If, in fact, the written policy is not being followed because
the consensus of the community is to ignore the written policy, then
the written policy isn't actually policy, now, is it?
So, in other words, you'll selectively enforce whatever policies you feel
like enforcing? If not, then what exactly *is* your job?
There obviously isn't a consensus in the community to ignore the written
policy in this case, so that's irrelevant.
I'm certainly not going to try to impose, as an Arbitrator, my opinion
as to what deletion policy should be. That would be a
gross abuse of
power.
Well that's a good start, and it's really all that's necessary. You don't
have to force the recreation by ruling, you just have to not sanction
someone else who does.
