This is an essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
This page in a nutshell: Why not? |
When you encounter a proposal or action which does not strike you as having any meaningful benefit to Wikipedia, also consider whether it has a meaningful downside. If you judge there to be no detriment, and others seem to think it may be helpful, consider adding your dispassionate consent for another user to improve the project in good faith.
