thanks for Brat!

Hi there. I've been moving the article on Shade's Children slowly forward, and wanted to give you a quick thanks for adding the description of Brat, a minor character about whom I had nearly completely forgotten. :p It really helps! :) Have a nice day (or night, I don't remember the time conversion from Montreal to Vancouver.)

Ahoy!

I saw you on JONJONAUG's page, and thought I'd say 'Hi'. Why am I not surprised you mention grammar edits as something you do? --AlmostReadytoFly 21:05, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

Thank you

Thanks for improving my userbox. --Gray Porpoise 19:58, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

WP:CHILD

There are a number of supporters for WP:CHILD, but by its talk page it's obvious there's at least as many opposers. That means that yes, there is a lack of consensus for this proposal, and per WP:POL, "a rejected proposal is any proposal that does not have consensual support, regardless of whether or not discussion is still ongoing". Unless consensus actually supports a proposal, the proposal fails (which, incidentally, happens to about 80% of proposals on the Wiki).

On a Wiki, changes do not generally have to be proposed; what I simply did was note the fact that there is no consensus for this proposal (nor will there likely be in the foreseeable future) and made a note of such on its page. >Radiant< 10:06, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

I understand that, but what I saw didn't seem to be outright rejection so much as either the process of discussion or an inability to decide. Now, again, I don't know how long discussion has to go on for such a thing to be decided, but this thing hasn't even been around for a full month. Surely it's reasonable to give the community more time for debate? CameoAppearance 12:16, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

If you say so, I'm just saying that it doesn't really seem to have been actively rejected. I'm not as aware of the criteria for closing as you are. CameoAppearance 13:19, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
