No, we don't.

Remember, what is called "policy" on Wikipedia is not prescriptive.  It is 
merely a description of what has happened in the past in response to certain 
situations, to provide a guide as to what to expect in similar situations in 
the future.

There's no need to *explicitly* change "policy"; simply start acting 
differently and "policy" will follow.
