Talk:Howling Halls

Archived old talk page
I have archived the old talk page that included the discussion about the proposed deletion of the talk page and the speculation. If you want to raise them again, do so on this page, and not the archive. Mini-mitch 16:10, January 6, 2011 (UTC)
 * Why on Earth did you do that? The conversation wasn't even a week old.  And not every section that you archived even had a chance to generate any sort of real discussion. By archiving the page, you stopped a valid consensus vote before it was officially closed.  I don't agree with anything Bold Clone was doing to or asserting about this page, but what you've done here is just as petulant.


 * I don't like the precedent set by your actions, Mini-mitch. Not one little bit. Thanks to this heavey-handed action, I feel we now need a policy on how, when, and by whom an entire talk page's contents can be archived.  It feels totally wrong to archive a week-old conversation just cause you're tired of dealing with it.  If you're tired of it, just walk away.  The ongoing vote was clearly going to end the discussion anyway; you didn't need to sweep it under the rug like it was a "problem".   What you've done is, in my opinion, way worse than the edit wars this tiny, insignificant page has attracted. The discussion you incredibly prematurely archived has had the positive effect of generating forthcoming policy changes.  It doesn't deserve to be shunted into an archive quite so quickly.  It should be proudly on display so that those users who weren't a party to this discussion can have an opportunity to easily see it.  But, no, you've gone and thrown the baby out with the bathwater.   Czech Out   ☎ | ✍  02:21, January 7, 2011 (UTC)
