Risker, the situation was that a bunch of admins had been removing links to attack sites for about 18 months. Not in any kind of systematic way (i.e. not hunting them down so far as I know), but just removing them if they noticed one. That was the de facto policy. *That's how policy develops, by admins doing things.* It just wasn't written down anywhere.
Not even all admins agree. That's a very small group to base a concensus around.
There's an obvious solution to that... impose political litmus tests within the RFA procedure on prospective admin candidates to make sure that nobody with the politically incorrect position on a sensitive issue ever becomes an admin.
