[WikiEN-l] No personal original research policy

[Mark Richards]

If it's a couple of talk pages, then either ignore it,
or, if it becomes a big deal, someone can delete the
pages, warn the users, and if, they chronically insist
on it, block them.
Which pages? Which users? I think the first step would
be for someone else to have a word with them about it.
