A meta-question: I am wondering whether, if one thinks a user on this list should be moderated, it is better to discuss it privately with the list admins (who, if convinced, could announce the moderation publicly, or not), or publicly on this list (explicitly inviting more opinions, being transparent about my position regarding moderating the user, but also embarrassing the user whatever the outcome).
Thoughts?
my preference would be to try to follow wiki rules&norms relatively closely. I perceive moderation as a technical result of norms that are agreed upon, and I don't think we have those for the list, frankly :) that's why different behaviors may trigger moderation, and result in a perceived unjustice/arbitrary application.
