if you're referring to the John Morgan post on killing pets 
in Grant Park, I thought I said I hid it.  Now, I noticed this 
morning that the article was deleted.  this makes me 
wonder,
as the other day while looking at a comment (forget what) 
i totally hit one of the buttons on the parent article sub-
section.  the page reloaded but i couldn't find which 
article I may have affected.  those buttons are just edit 
and article options, so i don't know. and i wasn't drunk!

so i don't know, maybe i'm to blame specifically.  and like 
i admitted, i'd started deleting some of criollo's string of 
posts as it was a step easier than hiding, and as i was 
really tired.

now, that hasn't happened in a while, since the galactic 
troll attack ended, so if there's other stuff recently, it 
wasn't me.

Upshot, if you think we should use individual admins, 
then go for it. if it clears this up, and you don't mind 
doing the tech work, go for it.

 Since whoever deleted those articles hasn't spoken up, I 
believe we 
 need to go to individual accounts.  Very possibly the 
person is simply 
 using the site incorrectly and needs instruction, or they 
aren't 
 keeping up on the mailing list and didn't see the my post 
about this 
 (so they didn't respond), or something, but we need to 
know who it was, 
 especially since it's part of a larger pattern of deleted 
posts.
 
 I'm perfectly okay with people using aliases, so long as 
people in the 
 collective are aware of how people match up with the 
aliases.  
 Hopefully that can handle privacy concerns.
