[WikiEN-l] Spam, Office et al

A lot of the bad atmosphere with regards to the Fleshlight is due to a 
confusion between whether Danny is acting independantly or acting as 
WP:Office.

It is confusing for wikipedians naturally.
It is confusing for Danny as well, who is pressured by the phone calls 
and otrs messages. Who is either left alone making a decision, and later 
is blamed by Jimbo, Brad or whoever. Or who acts under Jimbo or Brad 
supervision, but is the one to receive the blame from the community 
later on.

Problem is that Danny has very strong convictions himself (so may not be 
the best to handle such requests) and is - as expected from most 
wikipedians - sensitive to the community feedback afterwards.

I would like to suggest that office actions - normally under Brad 
responsability - be actually done by Brad himself or by a future new 
employee, who should NOT be a wikipedian.
