Addendum to WoC Comments Policy published

By 'Nortius Maximus' on October 19, 2008 6:48 PM

In a spirit of community, I offer notice of a kind of ideal for contribution here.

The following, written by Marshal Festus, has been added by Marshal Nort to the Winds Comments Policy.

For the record, here is a Disagreement Hierarchy from Paul Graham's March 2008 essay How to Disagree --

* DH0. Name-calling.
* DH1. Ad Hominem.
* DH2. Responding to Tone.
* DH3. Contradiction.
* DH4. Counterargument.
* DH5. Refutation.
* DH6. Refuting the Central Point.

Read the Whole Thing.

As it pertains to comments at Winds of Change, Resolved:
Higher on the Disagreement Hierarchy is Better.

Head over to the comments policy post if you care to comment on this.

Nonsubstative or OT comments there will be pruned.

"That is all."
