[Foundation-l] Hi, Jimmy Wales, Is there inspectors to investigate admins?

[James Hare]

Just like Eloquence stated in his platform, we need to make a big list of
these Best Practices so we can figure out what's best, so we "don't have to
re-invent the wheel" over and over again.

Let's get started on that. Effeietsanders here started it off by telling us
the doubleplusgood practice of the Dutch Wikipedia.

Perhaps this page of best practices can be a series of pages on Meta.
