Blog:Policy reviewers

In the interest of further helping in making these wikis consistent and providing ideas to help them function, I am founding an informal group I would call the 'Policy reviewers' who can support in reviewing drafts to proposed policy and clarification, suggesting changes, noting useful complaints to fix, creating quality Requests for Comment and generally just being sensible. This is not an administrative role nor does it offer special permissions, but its members may receive things like autopatrolled and be trusted to review edits here and elsewhere, either correcting issues personally or notifying an admin if there is something protected that needs to be fixed. It's also not a 'job', anyone who signs up can contribute as they see fit in whichever area, as long as we can look at things on a weekly, bi-weekly basis and say 'something happened'. If someone like DarkMatterMan wishes to make this an official group that I can add users to, excellent, but that is not needed. I do think people acting in this way is needed so changes can come with review and we can make a system of actively pushing things to happen. Results we come up with will then be presented to a bureaucrat to see if it's agreeable and to make sure they get done.

Early things would include reviewing member wikis for proper category setup, noting things that need to be taken care of in backlogs (such as requested deletions on more obscure wikis), checking out WIP policy pages and using their sense to list things that can or should be acted on. I also intend to make a discord channel and wiki-side section for people involved to have quicker contact and be able to throw in screenshots for things to address.

So if something like this would interest you, feel free to comment.
