Discussion
- Starting a chat as we're in discretionary territory. I'm leaning towards promotion, mostly given we're in the upper range of the discretionary zone, but I want to review the RfA at least once more. Maxim (talk) 18:06, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- The main reasons for opposing, in rough order of importance, are a lack of content creation, a lack of edit summaries, and the style and substance of the answers to questions (particularly Q7). That said, there are numerous support !votes that mention these concerns and do not find them to be sufficient cause to oppose. As I hinted at in my initial statement, what makes the difference to me in this RfA are the numbers. The arguments in opposition are reasonable, and if we were two percentage points above the floor of the discretionary zone, I would expect to be a solid "no consensus", but as we are in the upper range of the zone, at 73%, to me that pushes it into having sufficient consensus to promote.

- Acknowledged, will be at least 6 hours before I can read though it. — xaosflux Talk 18:30, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- Only early note: I see no immediate reason to extend. — xaosflux Talk 18:32, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you Maxim for getting this discussion started. I will read through it and offer my thoughts within the next couple of hours. 28bytes (talk) 18:40, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- I'd also like to thank Maxim for starting the cratchat, I had read much of the RFA in the last couple of days, but will need some time this evening, and possibly tomorrow morning before I'm ready to comment. ϢereSpielChequers 19:35, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for the notification, but I'm away and unable to participate right now. Warofdreams talk 20:10, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- It's getting reasonably late here, and I'd like to give the RfA a suitable read. I am more likely to get a response tomorrow morning than tonight. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 20:42, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- I just finished work and am brain fried. Could be up to 10 hours for a preliminary response as there are so many walls of text on this one. -- Amanda (she/her) 22:58, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
- I will respond at an opportune time. UninvitedCompany 23:31, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
