The RFC bot takes down RFC tags after 30 days have passed. The editor who closed the discussion didn't realize this either. I replied to his concern with the relevant links to the RFC here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Research#Making_a_policy_rfc It was that post that prompted the switch the closing decision from invalid RFC to valid RFC and policy.
For what it is worth, I tried to advertise this proposed policy as closely to the recommendations of WP:Policy and WP:RFC as I could. We'll keep pushing. Your participation is invaluable. -Aaron On Thu, Apr 8, 2010 at 2:32 PM, Fred Bauder <fredb...@fairpoint.net> wrote: > The point is well taken that the proposal was not that well advertised > and I still haven't found a link to the RFC. > > Fred Bauder > > > On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 8:37 PM, Piotr Konieczny <pio...@post.pl> wrote: > >> Bryan Song wrote: > >>> The Wikipedia:Research policy on subject recruitment on Wikipedia has > >>> made its way through RFC and is now accepted as a policy on English > >>> Wikipedia. > >>> > >>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Research > >>> > >>> Thanks to all who helped draft and shape the policy.
