Would an admin assess the consensus at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive290#Community ban discussion (moved from WP:ANI) (Initiated 2741 days ago on 26 June 2017)? Thanks, Cunard (talk) 07:17, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

{{Already done}} by 78.26. --George Ho (talk) 19:06, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Needs an uninvolved closure. I would welcome a solo or duo closure, i.e. one or two editors/admins. --George Ho (talk) 19:06, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

{{already done}} DrStrauss talk 19:36, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

I would like a closure as the user is being disruptive and preventing the community's decision from being enforced. The consensus is also nearly unanimous. (Initiated 2800 days ago on 28 April 2017) nihlus kryik (talk) 16:49, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

The RfC has hit 30 days today. Calling it "nearly unanimous" is contentious and some arguments go against WP:PRIMARY, so there is enough to sift through that it might be advisable to seek an admin particularly well-versed in that policy.--Tenebrae (talk) 19:08, 28 May 2017 (UTC)
After two days of heavy comments, this RfC is well over 30 days since initiation. The WP:PRIMARY-related question is: "Can editors make subjective claims based on the primary-source episodes without providing a cite (timestamp and quote) as to what exactly was said?" --Tenebrae (talk) 20:29, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Because of the nature of this ANI — and what resulted from the closure by a non-administrator of an interpersonal ANI related to it — closure by an Administrator is essential. Thank you. Pyxis Solitary talk 13:42, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

{{Already done}} by Alex Shih. Snuge purveyor (talk) 20:37, 9 July 2017 (UTC)

This is an interpersonal ANI that the OP prevented from being closed. It has deteriorated. Constructive responses by neutral editors has ended. (Initiated 2737 days ago on 30 June 2017) Pyxis Solitary talk 13:42, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

Would an experienced editor assess the consensus at Talk:Melania Trump#Alma mater (Initiated 2752 days ago on 14 June 2017)? Thanks, Cunard (talk) 07:17, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

{{Done}} - The RFC was closed prior to 30 days having run, with a No Consensus finding. (Did someone step outside in the Southern Hemisphere and conclude that it was snowing No Consensus?) The closure was then reversed (re-opened), but 30 days did not run, and there still is no consensus. I am only closing the RFC to conclude that there was no consensus but the RFC was not allowed to run its course. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:30, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Hey, Robert. May you fix the indentation please? It looks awkward. Thanks. --George Ho (talk) 21:07, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
User:George Ho - Indentation of what? The handling of the RFC was awkward. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:50, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Oh... I see that you already fixed the formatting of your response. Well, I realized that "indentation" was unclear, so I struck it. I should have specifically said, ": should be added". It's fixed, so there. --George Ho (talk) 21:56, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for closing the RfC, Robert McClenon (talk · contribs)! Cunard (talk) 04:50, 23 July 2017 (UTC)

(Initiated 2761 days ago on 6 June 2017) The RfC template has been removed by Legobot because the discussion has petered down. However, a formal close is highly desirable, as the result of this RfC potentially affects thousands of articles on academic journals. An uninvolved closer is sorely needed. Thanks! --Randykitty (talk) 11:18, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

@Randykitty: It wasn't removed because the discussion has petered down, it was removed because thirty days (actually 30 days and 48 minutes) had elapsed since the {{rfc}} was started. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 11:30, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
I stand corected. Nevertheless, a formal close seems higly desirable. --Randykitty (talk) 12:47, 8 July 2017 (UTC)
{{done}} Tazerdadog (talk) 18:49, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

(Initiated 2920 days ago on 28 December 2016). Request emphatic and clear closure directing the complainant to drop their quest. I would further appreciate their being strongly warned that they will be blocked, or actually, better, for them to be blocked for a month or two or six now, for pursuing it, given extensive and clear feedback they have received already. They made their preferred edit today (which I reverted). --doncram 20:32, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

I volunteer that it is not necessary for a closer to go further than simply considering the merits and closing the discussion. You can skip considering any block or other action; please excuse my wishful thinking about that, it is really not necessary (and by the way there has not been any further re-implementation of the inappropriate deletion). There is unanimous agreement by all but one editor that the quotation is fine, so it should be an easy call. --doncram 01:45, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

(Initiated 2731 days ago on 6 July 2017) The consensus for this discussion has been established as a merge to CNN controversies.

This needs a stake driven through its heart, per WP:SNOW and WP:IDHT. Hopefully an Admin can get the message across. I suggest if the editor wishes to pursue this, rather than carry on debate at articles, or at the WikiProject level, they must make a proposal to change WP:UNITS, and WP:CARUNITS and WP:MCNUM will defer accordingly. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 17:11, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

{{Not done}}. @Dennis Bratland: ANRFC does not try to force an end to ongoing discussions that aren't set up to explicitly require closure.

(Initiated 2730 days ago on 6 July 2017) The RfC, filed at the Talk:Foreign involvement in the Syrian Civil War#RfC on July 6th was agreed to be transferred to the main talk page of the Syrian Civil War article in light of the wide implication of the contested issue in line with a more limited audience of Foreign involvement in the Syrian Civil War (4 editors participated prior to the decision) and existing consensus at Talk:Syrian Civil War/Israel. As a result, Talk:Syrian_Civil_War#RfC was initiated on July 9th and so far 12 editors participated.

However, old RfC hadn't been cancelled/procedurally closed to date, and 2 more users decided to vote at the old RfC after July 9th in addition to their voting at new broader RfC (at talk:Syrian Civil War#RfC). Remarkably, one of the editors voted differently at the old and new RfCs. We cannot have two parallel RfC about the exact same topic and potentially different outcome. So far, the main page for topic-wide decisions on the Syrian Civil War arena has been the Syrian Civil War article and so should remain. Therefor i request to close the older RfC procedurally and allow more time for voting on the newer and much wider audience RfC.

My factual and simple close of a stalled discussion showing 42-12 support was improperly unilaterally overturned claiming unclear consensus possibly in violation of WP:NAC and definitely against the instructions at the top of this page. I request an uninvolved admin review my close and, if they agree, restore the close and the related changes to CSD13. I'm open to tweaks to my proposed G13 wording, but the right of an involved editor to do an NAC close is well established by community decision as reflected in the instructions. The overturn by an Admin claiming not to be acting as an admin is out of line. We have DRV for that. Legacypac (talk) 18:33, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

(edit conflict)Without commenting on the merits (or not) of the previous close, I think this should be left open for a while longer. While the vote numbers are clearly pointing one way, when taken with the context of previous discussion (and more apart from these) on what to do with stale drafts, it is clear that the closure will have to take the wider picture into account. Holding off for another 2 weeks, and having an uninvolved closure won't do any harm here.

@Hasteur: Completely agree with you here - as an early close has been discussed by some, I just wanted to register my opposition to this being closed "soon", and it wasn't commenting on the merits of the action of bringing it here. Mdann52 (talk) 17:43, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

The RfC template just expired and around a week has gone by without input from new commenters, so I would say the time has now come for this RfC to be closed. A note to potential closers that there are comments in some of the subsections for and against the proposal that did not make it into the main !vote thread, which should definitely be considered in the close. A2soup (talk) 17:26, 24 August 2017 (UTC)

  • Counting stray votes per A2soup, there have been 8 more Supports and 7 more Opposes since this request to close was created. Added to the 42-12 on Aug 4 gives 50 Supports vs 19 Opposes = 72.5% Support (to my count anyway). Pretty clear consensus for G13 expansion to cover all Drafts space pages unedited in 6 months.

@RoySmith: I would also like to see closure for this discussion, but may have been slightly involved. A question: by three, do you include yourself? Regards, Alex ShihTalk 04:32, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
No, I should not be one of the three. My prior involvement with this debate disqualifies me. But, I will take this opportunity to ping all the other admins reading this and ask them to consider stepping up. The debate is still simmering. It's not really even a debate any more, it's just the three main players continuing to snipe at each other. -- RoySmith (talk) 11:21, 1 September 2017 (UTC)
I predict no Administrator will close this and instead will roll off the page unless the enablers of the disruptive action continue to make patently false objections and arguments/proposals that would require jettisoning a great swath of current operating procedure. In short I look forward to an uninvolved user to start Arbitration proceedings or people let this roll off into archives so that it can be pointed at in 6 months as justification for AN not being able to resolve this issue. Hasteur (talk) 23:17, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
I appear to have a very similar problem to this editor which has been going on even longer and would have been easily rectified by viewing provided diffs, new evidence, and new WP policy of AUG2017 today in DRV. In fact, User:RoySmith purposefully ignored my concerns closing the request and each policy mentioned would have been highly relevant to this discussion now. (in fairness to Roy I'm new to this process and it was sort of disorganized). I wish he could have understood the similarities in my case with this one. My drafts were in already in user space and there was no suggestion what-so-ever to compromise with the draft disrupting editor who nominated my draft as stale only 1.5 hours after my last edit. Johnvr4 (talk) 18:37, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
User:Johnvr4 your issue has nothing to do with the Taku problem and is nothing like it. I don't think we need a close now. All the abandoned drafts have been run through G13 and refunded (or the CSD tag removed) or have been theough MfD. The admin guidelines on CSD G13 are pretty clear that the second refund is questionable amd the third request unlikely to be granted. I don't expect there wil be much effort on these pages so will G13 them in 6 months. Legacypac (talk) 18:15, 8 September 2017 (UTC)
Here is my take: it's related in a tangential sense that this is really a policy-question as opposed to a behavior-question and thus the AN is not a best venue for the discussion. I suspect that's one of the reasons the admits have difficulty closing the thread. I'm not starting an RfC and such since that will be interpreted as a disruption by the other side... -- Taku (talk) 20:54, 12 September 2017 (UTC)

The process at DR has stalled without prospect of resolution, with the moderator having recused themself as a result of representations by the OP at this page. The matter has been extensively discussed and reasonably notified, as evidenced in the thread. I submit that the matter has been sufficiently debated to determine a consensus but the matter requires an independent adjudication to make a close. It is my belief that to protract this matter further would cause unnecessary disruption without any commensurate benefit in preserving natural justice. This course has been suggested at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard#USS John S. McCain (DDG-56). Accordingly, I request that an uninvolved editor provide a close wrt the substantive issue - whether it is appropriate to mention in a ship's article the response of a state (the PRC) to FONOPS.

Requesting an uninvolved editor to look at this discussion involving a dispute of whether a particular song should be classified as a single. A user initiated a RfC on September 8th, but withdrew it on September 11th; the user then initiated a WP:3O, which was responded to (Although recent discussion has been under the RfC heading, the official RfC request was withdrawn). (I would close this myself, but I commented on the request, though I didn't opine one way or the other.) At the moment, it appears that there is currently only one user holding out; I believe it would be helpful for the discussion to be formally closed to keep it from dragging on unnecessarily.

(Initiated 2682 days ago on 24 August 2017) A recent deletion nomination for the article Alt-left was closed as no consensus. During the discussions a consensus of editors was formed to begin a merge discussion if the AFD concluded as "No consensus", which it did. Because of the controversial nature of both the article and the dispute, a request is being made for an admin to close this discussion when the duration of the proposal has ended. The rationale of the proposal is strictly the formed consensus and is why the question is left as a simple question to merge or not (there is no policy or guideline to adhere to that requires a fuller, or more detailed rationale). There is no 30 day discussion period required and may be closed when a consensus has been reached.--Mark Miller (talk) 04:34, 25 August 2017 (UTC)

(Initiated 2666 days ago on 9 September 2017) Second trainwreck of a pseudo-RfC back-to-back on the same day and page by same author.

I'm the author of the first trainwreck. My intention was to open a policy-inquiry-commentary (not any POV - I had a hard time deciding which policy to forward for the RfC, thus my citing them all, which may come across as that), but it became a content-dispute. There are problems with that article, so if you're going to close the RfC, please preserve its discussion if you can. Thank you. THEPROMENADER   15:45, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

Early review requested: RfC initiator contacted me on my TP to close this, as they wish to withdraw that RfC which a sizable majority opposes. However, there is some discussion about alternatives (see in particular K.e.coffman's suggestion and the replies), so it is not obvious that it can be withdrawn. I believe, but am not sure, that it qualifies for a speedy close, and I think it is improper for me to close it (per the spirit of CANVASS, since the RfC initiator contacted me directly, I am somewhat involved even if I offered no view on the RfC). If someone could look at it and either close it early or leave a note saying why it should not be closed early, it would be great.

  • I would hope I dont have to point this out to anyone uninvolved in this dispute, but this RfC obviously hasn't reached anywhere near its expiry date and shouldn't be closed. I posted an RfC because I wanted outside opinion on this issue. That there was an earlier discussion between the same few usual suspects on an article is neither here nor there, because the point was to get some fresh opinions in. This is the reason RfCs exist in the first place, and I would hope this would be self evident to an editor as experienced and established as Knowledgekid. :) Brustopher (talk) 21:05, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

(Initiated 2615 days ago on 30 October 2017) To put it bluntly, this RfC is flawed at best. The OP came to the talk page 10 days ago asking where content should be placed and when told that it isn't appropriate he wasn't heard from until today. It appears he has just added an RfC tag to his response expecting that was sufficient to create an RfC, which it isn't. Per Wikipedia:Requests for comment#Statement should be neutral and brief, the RfC statement should be neutral and brief. It is neither neither neutral nor brief and lacks focus. The OP hasn't really explained what he expects from participants so I don't see any useful outcome from the RfC. --AussieLegend () 19:17, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

James J. Lambden, it's natural for RfCs to expire before a close. They are supposed to run their course and then be closed (usually anyway). Re-opening them with a fresh time stamp causes the RfC to start all over again. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 21:02, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

I haven't extensively reviewed it (I more haunt the stuff that turns red on here, and it looks like there are people already willing to help out on this one), but at first glance it looks like there's probably not consensus in favor of the proposal. Might need to review the numbers (admittedly vote-y, but sorta necessary on big ones like this), but it also doesn't look like there's clear consensus against it, either (which means there's at least a significant sentiment of imperfection), so it looks like it's more down to summarizing the main points everyone made for/against and possibly pointing them in the direction of possibilities for future RFCs to address whatever their main concerns have been. Incidentally, it does seem a bit weird to me that this is kind of like an XfD of sorts, yet there doesn't seem to be any sort of XfD-like header on the pages in question, which might have skewed the results(?). Probably not that huge of a deal given the volume of input (besides, it looks to have been on CENT as of at least this revision) but it still seems somewhat odd to me given the usual way proposed things are tagged. *shrug* anyway... :P --slakrtalk / 02:06, 5 December 2017 (UTC)
@Slakr: Actually in terms of vote count, it was around 2-to-1 for opposing vs supporting closure. In addition, early on in the discussion, all the reference desks had a red notice on top informing users about the discussion (which is actually how I became aware of it), but they were removed around the time discussion stagnated (so maybe a few weeks in). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 05:48, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

{{Done}} I went ahead & closed it, per the suggested outcome I had made a few weeks ago. While I likely made a mistake somewhere in doing that, the discussion is in a terminal coma & clearly needed to be put out of its misery.
