Comment regarding outcome of the RfC[edit]

(which was moved from the RFC page by Stryn)

I don't understand this conclusion. Why is a wording which has never been approved by the community (and was caused by a transition error during the rewrite of the policy [1], it used to mean that there needs to be consensus among stewards taking community opinion into account) preferred over a wording which has been supported by over 57% of community members interested in this discussion (even over 60% if you discount opposes totally unrelated to this proposal, even over 69% if you discount COI votes by stewards)? This just doesn't make any sense. The motivation of this RFC has been to make sure people agree with the current practice, which is more than obviously not the case if over 30 people come here to support a change. --Vogone (talk) 12:41, 2 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jyothis, IIRC you wanted to look into this. Any reactions? --MF-W 12:35, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I still need to fully review again to see if I change my analysis from last time. --Jyothis (talk) 22:43, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
