| VIE has absolutely nothing to do with the CVU. Neither MFD nor DRV are, nor have ever been, a vote, and for the overriding principle of the closing admin to delete CVU you'd have to ask him, but it had nothing to do with VIE.

Hey John254 -- thanks for quickly reverting the recent vandalism on the Richardson, Texas page. Much appreciated... --nathanbeach 22:48, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
Your edit to Misplaced Pages:Process is Important
You added: However, some editors give a narrow construction to Ignore all rules, and claim that process should be adhered to unless there is a compelling justification for ignoring all rules. It is said that the repeated deletion and undeletion of this essay which began with a speedy deletion demonstrates the need to follow appropriate processes in most cases.
This doesn't make sense to me. Speedy deletion is performed hundreds of times every day. --Tony Sidaway 02:15, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
{{proposed}}
That was two and a half years ago. The wiki evolves, and we strongly recommend against voting on any proposal these days. >Radiant< 17:05, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- Well, no. The issue is one of educating new users that they should use consensual discussion as a strong preference over voting. The reason why this is important, is that it comes up exceedingly often, and novice editors tend to jump to the wrong conclusion. WP:NOT a bureaucracy. >Radiant< 17:41, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- It seems you're jumping to some wrong conclusions here. WP:DENY is not a good example (note how I am addressing the objections on its talk page, and how this cools down the war; voting would only polarize it further, and you'd get discussions on how long the vote would last, what suffrage is, and which % is required to accept, and more bureaucratic overhead). We have hundreds of proposals all over the wiki. I'd recommend you to read through some of the things in CAT:PRO and CAT:REJ to see how Misplaced Pages works and does not work with proposals. Some more recommended reading material includes WP:3P, WP:POL and Misplaced Pages is not a bureaucracy. >Radiant< 19:29, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
Huh?
VIE has absolutely nothing to do with the CVU. Neither MFD nor DRV are, nor have ever been, a vote, and for the overriding principle of the closing admin to delete CVU you'd have to ask him, but it had nothing to do with VIE. Kindly stop panic mongering, you are making a mountain out of the proverbial mole hill. Radiant! 22:38, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
- This is a perhaps more serious warning on the same subject. Please stop aggressive campaigning on this. Leave Misplaced Pages's normal consensus-building mechanisms to work. --Tony Sidaway 23:37, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
