Strange, isn't it Charles, that the deprecation of criticism
sections/articles would be the convention for "quite a few years now"
and yet no attempt at its formalization has "made it past being an
essay into a guideline" let alone policy?

Stranger still, is it not, that this same invisible notion can still
find abuse as the centerpiece of a large-enough edit war such that
resulted in the poorly-conceptualized case given (disrespectfully) the
Prez' name?

More thing on my to-do list: Get Arbcom to actually deal with
adjudicating policy and sections therein.
