John, much consensus is achieved in wiki Discussion(s), simply click the Discussion tab, https://wiki.osm.org/wiki/Talk:Canada_Building_Import and notice that there are four threads/sections under Discussion there already. If some "number of people" were involved in the original, they are perfectly welcome to join there. I'm not saying "don't do this in talk-ca" I am saying "there are often more-appropriate (vs. less-appropriate) places to have a discussion to achieve consensus." Sometimes, it makes sense to have an off-list email conversation in a one-on-one or one-on-many fashion. Thanks.
