Questions[edit source]

  • How are these results being determined? Is there a minimum amount of support each proposal needs? --ToaMeiko (talk) 02:23, 17 July 2014 (UTC)
    • Just when it's been open for a while (at least over a week), there's a very obvious consensus, and there hasn't been any discussion for a while. So basically BP:UCS. But this is exactly why I set it up to be done in stages, with the forum section done first. But instead, everyone ignored that and went off discussing everything at once.
