 | This page in a nutshell: This page is used to request that an uninvolved editor close a mature discussion, such as a request for comment, requested move, or deletion discussion. |
Bharatpedia:Closure requests is a venue where editors may ask an uninvolved editor to formally close a discussion that has run its course. It is commonly used for requests for comment, requested moves, articles for deletion, and similar structured discussions.
When to request closure[edit source]
A closure may be requested when:
- The discussion has been open for the minimum required period — typically seven days for a request for comment, and five to seven days for a deletion discussion.
- The discussion has reached a point where further comments are unlikely to change the outcome.
- The discussion is complex enough that a summary and reasoned determination of consensus would be helpful.
- No uninvolved editor has volunteered to close the discussion.
How to request closure[edit source]
To request a closure, add an entry to the list below in the following format:
* [[Page or section where the discussion is located]] – brief description of the discussion and its subject
Include the date and your signature. Editors who are themselves involved in the discussion should not close it.
