| - Uuuhm, banning people who upload pictures with generic names is just really dumb/too much work/it would remove valuable people from the wiki. You should make a big banner flashing when they try to upload a picture with a geneirc name. If you start banning people for uploading like that, I'll be the first volunteer to be banned. I uploaded 3 images with generick names. Arnout aka The Emperors Angel 17:25, 9 February 2009 (UTC) Shame on you! Seriously, it's in red flashy letters on top of the update image page, although making it bigger might be helpfull to prevent people from reading over it/not spending attention to the text above the actual upload stuff. But you forget they get a warning first. Maybe suften up a bit too: first a warning and if that doesn't work, the next 3 things are a ban, making the total 4 things before the first ban. ofcourse, if they have already been banned before for that reason, no more warning imo.--Image:El Nazgir sig.pngEl_Nazgir 17:31, 9 February 2009 (UTC) On closer look, it was only 1 image, the other 2 where named. And banning for something that is so easy to forget is just (dunno how to put this nice) plain retarded. Arnout aka The Emperors Angel 17:33, 9 February 2009 (UTC) It's so easy to forget. I didn't suggest this, this is my personal bar of standards. Mendel proposed this. +1 strike for arnout <3 —Image:MaySig.png Warw/Wick 17:41, 9 February 2009 (UTC) sigh. -User:PanSola (talk to the Image:Follower of Lyssa.png) 18:41, 9 February 2009 (UTC) I proposed this because acting on your personal bar of standards when it's not consensus gets you demoted. We need a discussion on what to do with stupidity anyway because there's no consensus on that either. --◄mendel► 19:58, 9 February 2009 (UTC) There's a difference between being stupid and being retarded, btw. -User:PanSola (talk to the Image:Follower of Lyssa.png) 20:01, 9 February 2009 (UTC) "acting on your personal bar of standards when it's not consensus gets you demoted" <- did you just decided this policy without consensus btw? -User:PanSola (talk to the Image:Follower of Lyssa.png) 20:03, 9 February 2009 (UTC) Banning people without due justification? That's always been something we don't want sysops to do. --◄mendel► 21:31, 9 February 2009 (UTC) How is this going to prevent 'stupidity'? I can understand the generic image names are annoying.and having to delete them or rename them is gonna take up a bunch of your time. But thats part of being an admin right? doing the 'dirty work'. And those lame notes like FRENZY WURKZ GUD WIF MENDING or lame trivia are easily removed with a revert, which takes about, i dont know, 3 seconds of your precious time? So either I'm not getting the full picture of why this is here, or this is just an attempt to prevent the inevitable. Lยкץ๒๏ץ talk 20:09, 9 February 2009 (UTC) This has nothing to do with me. Mendel's been wanting to write up this policy for a while afaik. I don't actually mean most of that crap, It's just an attempt to intimidate people into not being retarded. They don't have to know that, though. —Image:MaySig.png Warw/Wick 20:27, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
