think you did the *wrong* thing, but I think we should always
aim to stick to process. The fact that we have processes to delete
articles and to remove libelous content (OFFICE) should protect us. If
the risk was that great, I'm sure someone in the office would have
done something (perhaps you should have e-mailed?).
WP:OFFICE is there is fix problems after we've received complaints. We
should be aiming to fix the problems before anyone complains.
Of course, and OFFICE is one of the many steps between where we are and
any actual lawsuit. There is plenty of time to respect the social
structures that allow us to work together. If there are more than one
ways to deal with a given situation common social skills should tell you
to prefer the one that does the least harm, even if that is not the
easiest to apply.
