Regarding putting more resources into enforcement of BLP policies, what
resources are you talking about?  I have seen problems reported to the BLP
and other noticeboards, with no response or inadequate responses from admins
and editors.

My own wiki time is a very limited resource nowadays, so I can personally do
only so much to help.  I would love to have all the time in the world to
help on Wikipedia, but that's not realistic.  Resouces are our volunteers
and I see the number of former admins growing along with others editing more
infrequently.

Making the inclusion criteria more stringent for BLPs may make things more
managable for our volunteers (our resources) to handle in a satisfactory
way.
