Misplaced Pages:Non-free content review

This discussion forum has an extensive backlog where the oldest active entry was started on 10 June 2015 ({{Initiated|10 June 2015}}), and at the time if me posting this request, the page has 163 discussions that have yet to be closed, several started over a month ago. Steel1943 (talk) 19:10, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Please update {{Initiated}} below as the backlog is (slowly) taken care of.--Aervanath (talk) 19:35, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

(Initiated 3506 days ago on 13 June 2015)

About 155 discussions still to be closed.

Since this discussion board is now deprecated, and there will be no new discussions opened there, I would appreciate some help clearing the backlog.--Aervanath (talk) 21:56, 4 November 2015 (UTC)

• I just "did" about 3 of them. For the ones where I believe could really use more discussion, I've been relisting them on WP:FFD (but not in huge droves as that would overwhelm the daily subpages over there.) Steel1943 (talk) 21:59, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
• We're getting close to having all these discussions closed. NFCR is now down to 100 open discussions. Also, in November, NFCR was shut down to new requests, directing new requests to WP:FFD; when all of the discussions are closed from NFCR, the noticeboard will be closed and marked as historical. Steel1943 (talk) 18:52, 2 December 2015 (UTC)
• Finally  Done. Thanks to everyone who helped clear the backlog. Steel1943 (talk) 15:54, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard#Martin Hogbin

Would an administrator please assess the discussion at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard#Martin Hogbin? Thanks, --Sammy1339 (talk) 19:35, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

The discussion is now located at Misplaced Pages:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive278#Martin Hogbin. This is an ongoing issue. Can it be de-archived and evaluated? --Sammy1339 (talk) 03:37, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Take it to ArbCom. It's not going to happen here. Guy (Help!) 23:52, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

 Done JzG, we are not going to bother the poor Arbs with this. Not yet anyway. Drmies (talk) 17:57, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Taharrush jamai#Requested move 1 February 2016

I'm looking for an admin to close this move request, because of the sensitive nature of it. It's worth noting that a few new or little-used accounts/IPs have commented on both sides. Many thanks, SarahSV 21:50, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk: List of current state leaders by date of assumption of office#Rfc: How shall Elizabeth II be presented?

A consensus has been reached. GoodDay (talk) 22:52, 19 February 2016 (UTC)

A consensus at an RFC is the result of 30 days of discussion. The bot continues to invite editors. There is no need for an early close. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:24, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

Ok. GoodDay (talk) 06:37, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk:Genesis creation narrative#Requested move 22 January 2016

Open for 25 days. The discussion has petered out, and there is a clear consensus that it can be closed now. But this is a highly controversial issue, and has been the subject of numerous previous requests. Looking for an experienced, careful, and brave admin to close the discussion. StAnselm (talk) 18:53, 15 February 2016 (UTC)

• User:StAnselm, I think you need to butter any prospective admin up a bit more. Drmies (talk) 17:14, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
• StAnselm, help me out here. I have it 15-11, if I skip the intermediary polls, one of which I closed and the others I have yet to assess. Oppose: In ictu oculi, StAnselm, Polentarion, Tiggerjay, StevenJ81, JudeccaXIII, Simon Burchell, Graeme Bartlett, InsertCleverPhraseHere, BobKilcoyne, agr (ArnoldReinhold), Srnec, HokieRNB, H. Humbert, Amakuru. Support: Theroadislong, First Light, Doug Weller, Moxy, Hy Brasil, RGloucester, Rwenonah, Scjessey, Jonathan Tweet, Jess, jps. Note: I have friends and lovers on either side, so I think I can be unfair to both sides. I'm not saying, by the way, that I'll actually finish this: it's a beast. Drmies (talk) 17:37, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Actually, you missed Basileias as an oppose in the main discussion. But I found the opinion poll quite confusing, and I some editors voted only in it, so Darkfrog24, 172.58.225.118, StevenJ81, Deryck C, Roches, Dmcq, Dweller, and Maher-shalal-hashbaz should be added to the "opposes", with Leonhard Fortier, Röbin Liönheart, Khajidha, James, Dimadick, Keahapana and AIRcorn added to the supports. Also, First Light is clearly an oppose rather than a support. StAnselm (talk) 18:37, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

That's why I asked you, to copyedit. Thanks. Yeah, I did not look/count in those sections yet. I have some doubts about that IP, and will ping User:Bishonen. Wait, I just did. Drmies (talk) 18:45, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

I see that I left out Martin Hogbin as well: I failed to copy him and Basileias from my list in Notepad. Drmies (talk) 18:47, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

Talk:George Young (politician)#Requested move 1 February 2016

Why is an early close being requested? Robert McClenon (talk) 06:20, 11 February 2016 (UTC)

Robert McClenon, maybe because, in the Proposals section, editors have reached an agreement. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 23:36, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

I agree with Flyer22 Reborn. Today is the 30th day after the RfC was opened, so an RfC close will no longer be early. Cunard (talk) 19:29, 14 February 2016 (UTC)

(Initiated 3288 days ago on 17 January 2016)? Thanks, Cunard (talk) 04:16, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Not done - No such RFC in the current talk page. May be a malformed request for closure of the RFC. It isn't obvious why Veganism would be discussed in connection with Human spaceflight, and I didn't see such a discussion. Robert McClenon (talk) 07:54, 22 February 2016 (UTC)
