If you want me to constantly consult with the other moderators who decided to make this their case aswell, you will get what you used to get: No reply, no action. Especially since Aidan is currently in Japan which makes him unable to keep an eye on the wiki constantly.

I'm cool with informing the Wiki chat. That's fair enough. But I am not going to sit and wait until everyone is finally satisfied and unanimous. That gets us nowhere, especially knowing how some people can hold on to petty arguments it will just cause more arguments.

I mean, it is suprising, if not shocking how long this managed to stay on there in the first place. See above. Also note that we have not yet had any sign that any of the mod team members 'keeps an eye' on the wiki suggestions on ay regular basis. Not, any.

We don't use the wiki chat. As mentioned, we have a dedicated FB group page and a chat channel. So, no argumentation in any 'live' channels about suggestions. No argumentation between mod team members and non-mod team members afaic anyway. The mod team gets the suggestions as-is on the wiki boards and can judge them as-is. Whether the mod team wishes to actively participate in the suggestions threads is still up to you, but I recommend alignment on whatever you decide.

That example is one that shows some of the flaws in our system. There are more examples. It also shows how much attention people may pay to suggestions that aren't exceptionally meaningful ... and meanwhile create a lot of noise that basically withdraws attention from suggestions that are more meaningful. This is one of our core arguments in the discussion on having a 'selection' method or not.
