You're not stepping on my toes at all. I've discouraged some others from barging ahead because I thought they'd demand a review based on "this is a stupid idea" (which it is) rather than grounding it Wikipedia policies and guidelines. SFR acknowledged the pro-table !voters were in the majority but noted they made weak arguments with regards to policies and guidelines (i.e, just a lot of WP:ILIKEIT). Some of the people on the airport talk page are agitated enough to screw it up and get the door shut forever.</dd> <dd>SFR just did his job based on what was presented to him. I was unaware of this RfC until after the fact when I was looking at a trip to Las Vegas. Had I commented at the RfC, I would have drilled into exactly what our policies say about primary sources; using airline and airport data was very much allowed in this case. I'd have cited chapter and verse, etc.</dd> <dd>I think any appeal needs to be grounded on the primary sources question, not "the-admin-screwed-up".</dd> <dd>There's other stuff to consider, too, and I've made a bunch of notes but been busy in real life. —<span class="nowrap"><span style="font-family:Futura"><a href="/wiki/User:A._B." title="User:A.

I had my own legitimate concerns about the close, which were partly inspired by the points you made about primary sources during dispute resolution. Though I also was aware that you intended to challenge the close, and I wanted to put it on a stronger footing beforehand. I don't think that that is a bad thing, but I wanted to apologize if it seems like I sought to preempt you while you were not ready.<p>My idea was that I could request closure review regarding the specific changes that I considered necessary, and you could subsequently request your own review centered on your particular concerns. In retrospect, however, I acknowledge that it is rather impractical to have one thorough discussion about the RFC one day, and have another a few months later.</p><p>In light of the above, I am willing to withdraw my request for closure review if you desire more time to formulate your arguments in collaboration with other editors. This would leave me in a limbo until you post your challenge: I was apparently the only editor seeking to enforce the RFC consensus, but I no longer feel comfortable defending a major part of the close. We would also certainly repeat ourselves to some degree in a future discussion. Nevertheless, I wonder if it is worth it, in the interest of having a fair debate about this controversial issue. <a href="/wiki/User:Sunnya343" title="User:Sunnya343">Sunnya343</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Sunnya343" title="User talk:Sunnya343">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:A._B.#c-Sunnya343-20240120170900-Sunnya343-20240118041300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:09, 20 January 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Sunnya343-20240120170900-Sunnya343-20240118041300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Sunnya343-20240120170900-Sunnya343-20240118041300"></span></p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-A._B.-20240120175400-Sunnya343-20240120170900"></span>I have <i>never</i> thought you've acted in bad faith.

We don't do this to be hard-nosed; it's just that we can't write very reliable or accurate articles unless our articles meet these rules. These are Wikipedia-specific rules to meet Wikipedia-specific needs; they're different from what many other web sites allow because those other sites have different objectives.</dd> <dd>We have almost 7 million articles. Perhaps 1 million are about living people? That's just a guess. The world's got 7 to 8 billion people. That means that maybe only 1 in 7,000 people has a Wikipedia article.</dd> <dd>Regards, --<span class="nowrap"><span style="font-family:Futura"><a href="/wiki/User:A._B." title="User:A. B.">A.

Unfortunately this turned into ANI whack-a-mole. From what I see, Wikipediocracy seems like a reasonable place with the exception of at most a handful of editors, one in particular. Other than those editors' posts, it appears to serve a useful purpose for Wikipedia even if it may not feel like it to Wikipedians. It certainly looks more civil than ANI.</dd> <dd>The doxxing stuff was wrong, though.—<span class="nowrap"><span style="font-family:Futura"><a href="/wiki/User:A._B." title="User:A. B.">A.
