I see no particular reason for a page separate from the "Political significance" section on the Jester article for this particular concept. Right now, this is a redundant page that contributes nothing of encyclopedic value. Ithinkiplaygames (talk) 04:40, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge and redirect to Jester; not enough here for a standalone article. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 04:51, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Merge and redirect (with a rename?): Not enough to stand alone, but I see that it is a thing, verified by some useful sources, and there isn't a lot of coverage of it in the Jester article. I didn't look into the history of how it came to be called "privilege". All of the sources said "license". I see it as akin to the (employed or contracted) "white hat" hacker's ability to probe and break into computer systems and networks, without being charged criminally. Not a privilege, but an important license to have. So I could see moving the material to maybe even a separate section in the Jester article, and having a redirect from Jester's license, if that's even necessary. I expect anyone searching for Jester's license would be resourceful enough to check out Jester to find what they were looking for. _signed, Willondon (talk) 05:22, 21 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• I agree -- Merge as suggested. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:13, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
