It would be more concrete without the statement of "Ambiguous symbols/imagery/figures will be decided on by the admins. " hanging over the vote Feels pretty concrete to me. What's more concrete than admins deciding on stuff? Don't you trust us anymore? It's not necessarily about trust, more certainity. When you say "tbd" that means we can't be certain about that category of things. But you can be certain once the decision is taken...?

I don't see the problem here. The problem is that we won't be certain until a specific answer on what will and won't be allowed is given, and that wouldn't happen until after this vote passed, if it passes If the vote fails you'd never get an answer, you'd never get any certainty. Which may be, in some users' opinions, better than voting on a vote that doesn't completely cover the matter at the time of voting. What's the problem with going on a case-by-case basis for these things?! That's currently what we're doing, from what I can tell. This vote was supposedly to give one concrete and specific answer to all of them, was it not? Alemas, I don't really foresee us needing to decide something ambiguous in the future, this already is a catch-all policy proposal. Why don't we just axe the admin decision bit? i don't think that's a wise decision. the admins need freedom to act spontaneously without losing policy legitimisation, otherwise whenever a user will find a new loophole to exploit the situation will devolve as it did this time around.
