:::: With that, I feel comfortable restoring the [[Warren Smith]] page, and creating [[:Category:Living people]] to add him to. I may take it on faith that [[Keith Edmonds]] also belongs in that category. I may also create a [[Rob Lanphier]] redirect, and add my page to that category. Where I think we can draw the line is users that want to remain anonymous. Adding your user page to that category implies that you no longer wish to remain anonymous, that you're putting your real name in the main namespace (not a pseudonym), and you're willing to prove to the site admins what your identity should someone ask you. Creating one of those redirects for a different editor who hasn't already identified themselves publicly should be considered a violation of policy.
:::: I think I might draft up some policy around this, and do some other editing. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 00:51, 26 November 2019 (UTC)
== Living people ==
I added a [[Electowiki:Policy#Living_people|"Living people" section on the Policy page]] yesterday, based on the norms that [[User:Dr. Edmonds]] and I have started to establish. None of this is written in stone; I'm planning to use [[w:WP:BRD|Wikipedia's BOLD, revert, discuss]] process for editing, and I invite other site admins (e.g. [[User:Psephomancy]] to do the same. Other active editors on this site should be more cautious about making similar policy changes, but please don't be bashful about at least suggesting changes on this talk page. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 00:54, 27 November 2019 (UTC)
