How to judge downhill edits and/or comments: For some reason from time to time an Edit War and/or a thread that becomes a base for horrid comments (like that poll that had to be sanctioned) may happen from time to time.

When an Edit war happens (If a Patroller or above has to keep on reverting due to the offender reverting back to his/her desirable edit), what the Patroller or above says should be treated as final unless something more fruitful comes to mind. If there has been 3-5 revert rebuttals by the offender, then tell the offender that he/she needs to stop rebutting Patroller Reverts and if the symptomps persist, block for 1 month after messaging the offender. Also watch out for offenders who will cheat for badges from time to time. You might want to look at the edit history before taking action and if that's the case (Senseless edits, unneeded edits, "Lean Wiki" Issues), then pull the plug on the offender for 1 month, but only after you warn the offender to stop and it does not improve. Remember you want to quell problems by warning the offender and have the offender talk to you and make the offender realize the mistake of his/her ways.

Also, if there's a thread that is causing a flame war, trolling, and/or a heated argument, don't infract the individuals, but instead announce that the thread has went downhill and then close the thread for further comments. I'll continue to come up with tips on how to become an efficient enforcer on this Wiki, so keep your eyes peeled.
