Closure Experience
Hey CommunityNotesContributor! Coming from the move review; thought I'd bring this here to avoid derailing the conversation there on a tangent. I think the sentiment you expressed about policy arguments is well-meaning, but I'd argue it's backwards and the sort of thing that makes Wikipedia a difficult place for newbies to grok. Participating in project discussions should have a low barrier to entry. In fact, it makes perfect sense for a new editor to have never run into a move request (or AfD or RfC or similar) before they encounter one in the areas they normally edit in. Wikipedia's policies are well grounded in common sense and good judgement; I have seen newer editors make solid policy arguments without knowing their WP:SHORTCUTS simply by focusing on sources and having a decent understanding of what matters.

Anyone closing a discussion, by contrast, should be well-versed in project space and understand the consensus process and relevant policies on a deep level. A close is intended to be a neutral and authoritative declaration of the outcome. I agree with you there were some silly comments in the RM (comes with the Twitter/X territory right now), but my biggest concern is that the close shouldn't be reflecting them. We need people willing to take on controversial and complex closes, but those people need to be experienced enough editors to discard comments that make extraordinary claims alongside "I don't have reliable sources to prove that", not such inexperienced editors that they're making those comments themselves.

I don't honestly have that strong an opinion on how the whole Twitter/X thing should shake out—I've been busy with other stuff recently and had I not seen the talk page notif I probably wouldn't even be actively editing at all right now—but I do care deeply about making Wikipedia a welcoming space for new editors. From what I've seen of your comments, I think you might care about that too, which is why I brought it up. Food for thought maybe, though then again maybe I've got the whole thing backwards myself.

Thanks for fixing the chronological order of the discussions on that page, I didn't realise I started that in the wrong place. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 18:33, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

OSU pro-Palestinian campus protests
Hey @CNC, hope you're doing well. I hope you remember me from the 2024 Ohio State University pro-Palestinian campus protests article drama. I'm just reaching out because I have made a multitude of suggestions on the talk page of that article, but you have been the only one to actually help get these changes implemented, and it seems like you're taking a break from that article.

I just wanted to ask: is there anything I can do to make it easier for you to implement the remaining changes I've requested on that article's talk page? I just want to ensure the article is at its highest-possible quality, which is difficult to do without extended-protected permissions. I've requested help across all the project pages affiliated with the article over a week ago, but zero people have helped out so far.

Thank you again for all your help. I look forward to hearing back from you.

 * Should probably clarify my name isn't CNC it's @CommunityNotesContributor, so pinging CNC doesn't work, but opening a discussion on my talk page will. I'll try and have a look when I find some time, sorry to hear nobody else has been helped. CNC (talk) 18:20, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
