Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search

The Requests for closure noticeboard is for posting requests to have an uninvolved editor assess, summarize, and formally close a discussion on Wikipedia. Formal closure by an uninvolved editor or administrator should be requested where consensus remains unclear, where the issue is a contentious one, or where there are wiki-wide implications.

Ball1.png

Many discussions do not need formal closure and do not need to be listed here.

Many discussions result in a reasonably clear consensus, so if the consensus is clear, any editor—even one involved in the discussion—may close the discussion. The default length of a formal request for comment is 30 days (opened on or before 31 May 2016); if consensus becomes clear before that and discussion has slowed, then it may be closed early. However, editors usually wait at least a week after an RfC opens, unless the outcome is very obvious, so that there is enough time for a full discussion.

Ball2.png

If consensus is unclear, then post a neutral request here for assistance.

Please ensure that your request for a close is brief and neutrally worded. Please include a link to the discussion. Do not use this board to continue the discussion in question. Be prepared to wait for someone to review the discussion. If you disagree with a particular closure, do not dispute it here. You can start discussion at the original page or request a Closure review at Administrators' noticeboard with a link to the discussion page and the policy-based reason you believe the closure should be overturned. See Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Closure review archive for previous closure reviews.

Any uninvolved editor may close most discussions, so long as they are prepared to discuss and justify their closing rationale.

Because requests for closure made here are often those that are the most contentious, closing these discussions can be a significant responsibility. Closers should be familiar with all policies and guidelines that could apply to the given discussion. All closers should be prepared to fully discuss the closure rationale with any editors who have questions about the closure or the underlying policies, and to provide advice about where to discuss any remaining concerns that those editors may have.

A request for comment discussed how to appeal closures and whether an administrator can summarily overturn a non-administrator's closure. The consensus was that closures should not be reverted solely because the closer was not an administrator. However, special considerations apply for articles for deletion and move discussions—see Wikipedia:Deletion process#Non-administrators closing discussions and Wikipedia:Requested moves/Closing instructions for details.

Once a discussion listed on this page has been closed, please add {{Close}} or {{Done}} and a note to the request here, after which the request will be archived.

Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Capital letters/Archive 21#The word "like"[edit]

This needs an accurate analysis before a closing rationale. George Ho (talk) 07:55, 14 March 2016 (UTC) (Initiated 141 days ago on 10 February 2016)

This is now located in an archive at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Capital letters/Archive 21. Someone willing to dig into one of the lamest contentious discussions of all time should assess whether it's worth dragging out of an archive or not. ~ RobTalk 13:39, 13 April 2016 (UTC)
Since numerous editors considered the discussion worth discussion, and since George Ho wants an accurate summary of the discussion, I agree with George Ho's request for closure. That some editors consider it "lame" does not detract from other editors' considering it important and worthy of closure (evidenced by the extensive, passionate discussion).

Because the discussion has been archived, there are two methods to implement the close: (i) Move the discussion back to the talk page and close it and (ii) Close the discussion, keeping it in the talk page archive, and announce the result on the talk page. Cunard (talk) 06:01, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

How about method 2? Or another method: click "edit" button at the Archive page and write the rationale. --George Ho (talk) 07:56, 21 April 2016 (UTC)
This doesn't need a close, being effectively moot. RM has continued to follow MOS on this, and despite a few voices in support of sweeping change to treatment of short prepositions on Wikipedia (even having a magically special variant rule for songs), nothing like a consensus arose for this, the matter was sourced into the ground (both as to what different genres of sources do, and why WP uses the rule it does, in keeping with the centrist, non-extreme treatment in RS), and whatever stress and productivity drain was involved in the discussion, the qualify of the relevant RM discussions has improved, with actual examination of whether something's a preposition or not, instead of rants along the lines of "since Rolling Stone writes it this way, WP must also". There really is nothing to do. Not every discussion needs a formal closure, and a conclusion of "there isn't a clear consensus to change anything" certainly doesn't need one.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  17:24, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

I withdraw my nomination I hope a fresher discussion should be more constructive than this one. It was less managed and disorganized. George Ho (talk) 08:55, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk:YouTube#RfC: Lists of countries using YouTube and of media encoding options[edit]

An uninvolved but competent editor is needed. George Ho (talk) 08:08, 16 April 2016 (UTC)

Would an experienced editor assess the consensus at Talk:YouTube#RfC: Lists of countries using YouTube and of media encoding options (Initiated 99 days ago on 23 March 2016)? Thanks, Cunard (talk) 21:43, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)#Wikipedia:Disambiguation and inherently ambiguous titles[edit]

Please close this RfC, which has run its course, and which I've just had to save from bot archival. RGloucester 18:33, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Note: (Initiated 97 days ago on 25 March 2016). It's not all that long, as these things go. The consensus, on a policy, evidence, and reasoned-argument basis, is pretty easy to determine despite the lack of a snowball in either direction.  — SMcCandlish ¢ ≽ʌⱷ҅ʌ≼  17:27, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
  • Please, please, please! Close this ancient RfC. RGloucester 05:21, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Chrysler/Archive 4#RfC: Reception; rankings in independent surveys and ratings of quality, reliability, and customer satisfaction[edit]

There's currently an edit war between the RfC participants over whether to close or extend the RfC beyond 30 days. Can a non-involved, preferably Admin, editor intervene and resolve one way or the other? At the moment it's "closed" because I have not reverted the last revert, but I expect it will get re-opened, then re-closed, again. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 19:37, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

Formal closure by a neutral, uninvolved administrator under WP:CLOSE is respectfully requested, as neutrality is at issue, and the discussion has at times been contentious. We may expect the closing statement to be closely scrutinized. RfC launched 23 March 2016, most recent comment 1 May 2016. Thank you. Hugh (talk) 19:59, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Jerusalem#Is Jerusalem in Israel or Palestine[edit]

Please formally close this Rfc I opened, because it is about a contentious area. (Initiated 37 days ago on 24 May 2016) Debresser (talk) 14:49, 23 June 2016 (UTC)

Talk:European Graduate School#RFC to update accreditation section[edit]

I make a formal request for closure of this RfC. I believe there is consensus around the proposal made by Special:Contributions/87.162.74.84 (Initiated 36 days ago on 25 May 2016). 79.64.199.8 (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

That "consensus" was suddenly established in a later section to make an edit that basically runs against the RfC proposed (and majority-supported) version looks very dubious to me, to say the least. It is unclear if you request the close of the RfC that really runs (Initiated 58 days ago on 3 May 2016) or of a section that is not a proper WP:RFC. I smell something fishy with that close request. TigraanClick here to contact me 16:55, 27 May 2016 (UTC)
It appears to me that the later section is part of the original RfC. See [1]. 79.64.199.8 (talk) 18:57, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Black supremacy#RfC: Racist[edit]

Some requests have been made at this RfC to have an experienced editor read over, and close the discussion. Thanks in advance. Fyunck(click) (talk) 07:16, 1 June 2016 (UTC) (Initiated 50 days ago on 11 May 2016)

no real need to weigh the rfc as has become moot at this point..there was an afd that resulted in keep but led to the article being hugely altered to the point that the discussion is now irrelevant..68.48.241.158 (talk) 16:24, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive922#Clarification please: DrChrissy and human anatomy edits[edit]

I am requesting a non-involved, experienced administrator to close this clarification request because it has potentially wiki-wide (or at least very broad) implications. It was opened 30 days ago and has received no further comment for the last 24 days. DrChrissy (talk) 19:47, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Copying my comment from here. I think this is a reasonable request for closure. I read the ANI discussion and found that several admins and editors believe that edits to articles on human anatomy with no health or medical aspects are not covered by the topic ban. Based on the heated and accusatory comments by several of the involved editors in the discussion, it is clear that to avoid conflict and doubt DrChrissy should get a clear ruling from an uninvolved admin as to whether he can edit those articles.

WP:ANRFC is the correct place to request closure. A request at WP:AN or WP:ANI will be archived without action if an admin does not act on it in time. That no timely action has been taken does not mean DrChrissy should not get closure. Cunard (talk) 05:31, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Comics#Request for Comment: Quotes and italics[edit]

Someone familiar with comic books might be best for this, but that might not be necessary: After five contentious weeks, an overwhelming majority of experienced, veteran WikiProject Comics editors all agree on one side, and only one person, who has rejected two offers of compromise, remains arguing the other side. It's getting a little rancorous, with the same arguments being repeated, so hopefully someone can close it. --Tenebrae (talk) 05:32, 17 June 2016 (UTC)

I humbly ask that someone please close this quickly, as, after more than five weeks, it has become increasingly rancorous, with verbal attacks and name-calling. For the good of WikiProject Comics, please close it soon.--Tenebrae (talk) 21:54, 20 June 2016 (UTC)
