If I came off as a bit harsh in that MFD, I didn’t intend it. That’s a content forum, so I couldn’t tell you that yeah, that user definitely needed to be blocked. Chess enjoyer (talk) 05:02, 22 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Chess enjoyer, all good. I was considering taking it to ANI to start with. I should have gone with my gut instinct first. TarnishedPath^talk 05:04, 22 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Happy template editing! ~ ONUnicorn^{(Talk|Contribs)}problem solving 23:31, 12 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve explored the kerfluffle behind the Zionism discussions which I declined to close at CR. I may make a statement at AE describing my reasoning. But I write this principally as a courtesy; I’m inclined to procedurally close M.Bitton’s RfC, which you reopened, as premature. Most of the discussion there seems to indicate so; also, I had declined with the understanding that an RfC was in the process of being workshopped. I did not want a closure of an unofficial discussion to short-circuit an RfC in the making.

That is by no means the sole reason I declined to close both discussions. Iseult ^Δx talk to me 04:29, 17 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Iseult, if you do, as an uninvolved editor, decide to close the RFC then I guess I’m not going to make a fuss or kick up a stink. That said, the sentence in question has been a topic of discussion for years and I don’t necessarily know that any workshopping of a question will help get a better question.

Take for example the question at Talk:Zionism#RfC:_Moving_”as_few_Arabs”. It looks like it is unlikely to resolve in any way other than no consensus and that is in large part down to the question itself; however that discussion had a directly prior discussion at Talk:Zionism/Archive_39#Moving_”as_few_Arabs” which was part workshopping.

Also, in favour of the current RFC, it was born off a contested edit at Special:Diff/1349279597 and the RFC offers a clear question flowing from that contested edit. The RFC offers a) the prior wording or b) the contested change. In all, I think the current RFC is a clear question more likely to result in consensus for or consensus against and WP:RFCBEFORE is more than satisfied.

Ah. With your addition of the Background section, I withdraw my objection. That would have been nice if included from the beginning. As for RfCs, ARBPIA has the 1000-word remedy, and so I look forward to closing this discussion with that to shield me from walls of text. Iseult ^Δx talk to me 06:42, 17 April 2026 (UTC)[reply]
