==RfC CLOSECHALLENGE request at AN closed==
Hey, VR. Hope you've been well. Sorry I forgot to ping you to let you know that I closed your AN request with no action ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=1006351561#Requesting_RfC_be_re-closed permanent link]), but with some notes still attached. I will say that I think the fact that this request remained at AN for <u>over 2 months</u> (and remained untouched for <u>almost a month</u>) seems quite emblematic of what I said both on that thread as well as at the MEK talk page. Namely, that no outside editor wishes to get into the content weeds for that subject, and no uninvolved admin wants to provide active enforcement, either. That is to say, enforcement which, if we were to follow the example of myself and {{u|Vanamonde93}}'s (courtesy ping) approach, is about as ''activist'' (as in an agent, not in terms of advocacy, obviously) an admin's role can ever really be on the project.

I note that upon linking to Vanamonde's username just now, I happened to glance at his contribs (just a diff or two, as I am pressed for time at the moment) for a sec and noticed he's back at it, but that, unless I'm misreading, he seems to be at his wits end at this time, just as I had been in the past ([https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:People%27s_Mujahedin_of_Iran&diff=prev&oldid=1005418131 diff]). I'll stress that this amounts to my only peak into the MEK talk page since my last comment there, and all I read was Vanamonde's aforementioned comment in isolation. Anyway, I guess there goes the "cautious optimism" I expressed at my closing summary at AN.{{frown}} Please feel free to update me about what has been happening there since my last visit — in a breath only, though, if you please!

Hope you're well

Hi VR, we edited a few of the same articles a couple of months ago, specifically the Superstition and Concubinage in Islam articles. I sort of quit those discussions cold-turkey, which made me feel a little guilty, I felt like you were making some very good points. But editing hot topics on Wikipedia is sometimes more trouble than it's worth, so I've decided not to touch them for a while. Anyway, keep up the good work and Happy Holidays :).

RfC CLOSECHALLENGE request at AN closed

Hey, VR. Hope you've been well. Sorry I forgot to ping you to let you know that I closed your AN request with no action (permanent link), but with some notes still attached. I will say that I think the fact that this request remained at AN for over 2 months (and remained untouched for almost a month) seems quite emblematic of what I said both on that thread as well as at the MEK talk page. Namely, that no outside editor wishes to get into the content weeds for that subject, and no uninvolved admin wants to provide active enforcement, either. That is to say, enforcement which, if we were to follow the example of myself and Vanamonde93's (courtesy ping) approach, is about as activist (as in an agent, not in terms of advocacy, obviously) an admin's role can ever really be on the project.

I note that upon linking to Vanamonde's username just now, I happened to glance at his contribs (just a diff or two, as I am pressed for time at the moment) for a sec and noticed he's back at it, but that, unless I'm misreading, he seems to be at his wits end at this time, just as I had been in the past (diff). I'll stress that this amounts to my only peak into the MEK talk page since my last comment there, and all I read was Vanamonde's aforementioned comment in isolation. Anyway, I guess there goes the "cautious optimism" I expressed at my closing summary at AN. Please feel free to update me about what has been happening there since my last visit — in a breath only, though, if you please! Kind regards, El_C 17:53, 12 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
