Ed hasn't edited since Dec 11th. He may not want this popularity process that encourages people to express negative opinions. This Rfa should be closed NOW by an admin, SqueakBox 21:43, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I agree. I could close it but I'd prefer the people who started the RfA to do so.--Alabamaboy 21:52, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
It will be closed 7 days from the time it was created unless Ed accepts. Doing anything otherwise violates policy, including all the voting that is taking place.Gateman1997 21:57, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
The candidate hasnt accepted the nomination, or been active for a few weeks, and ithe nomination hasn't even been linked to the main WP:AfD page; it's not like it's really following policy as it is. Joyous | Talk 22:05, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
It's not supposed to be linked to the main page UNTIL the user accepts.Gateman1997 22:06, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

This is invalid, because the nominee has not accepted. You're effectively turning it into an RfC about a user who has left. SlimVirgin 22:12, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Why are people voting is my question. This is valid ONCE he accepts. However voting is supposed to wait until he's accepted and it's placed on the main page.Gateman1997 22:14, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

I have protected this page. There is no reason for anyone to 'vote' here, since Ed has no accepted. This is becoming an RfC by any other name, without the subject here to deal with it. I would not object to a deletion, in the manner of an uncertified RfC. -Splash 22:17, 2 January 2006 (UTC)
