In the interest of full disclosure, I helped create the appearance of {{tl|Infobox road}} (IBR), so my ultimate goal is to intergrate {{tl|Infobox Australian road}} (IBAR). I tried to stay out of the TfD discussion, especially after it got ugly. All that being said, I'd like to work with you to address the concerns you had. If you could renumerate them, I'll try to come up with a solution for each. Thanks. &ndash;]] 00:40, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Hi Bidgee, Just dropping a line, the "unaccept" button on pending changes was not for undoing a change that is pending. That button is to revoke the acceptance of an already-accepted change.

== Invitation to participate in a research ==
Hello Bidgee. I am interested in the 'consensus needed' comment that you made after reverting my edits to ] and ]. Does this mean that if no one says that they like the idea of a template for the channel table, it can't be instated into the articles? I'm curious to know how you expect the consensus to be reached. The way I see it, if someone reverts an edit for any particular reason there is definitely disagreement about it, but if no one says that they agree, it ''doesn't'' necessarily mean that there is any disagreement. According to this ], 'any edit that is not disputed or reverted by another editor can be assumed to have consensus', so wouldn't it make more sense to leave the articles with the channel table in template form, and then if anyone reverts it with a genuine reason, or not, we can be sure if there is consensus or not.


Hello,
I'd also like to know what your opinion is on this matter and the pros and cons. 'Consensus needed' doesn't really say anything about your opinion. Thanks ] (]) 06:17, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Again, you've reverted an edit with the label 'no discussion and no consensus'. Is this a meaningless label you give to every revert regardless of the circumstances and without bothering to check if it's true?

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Misplaced Pages arbitration process.

This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
