Forum talk:Temporary forums/Subpage policy

Scope of conclusion
Thanks for the closing statement, OncomingStorm12th! It's very gratifying to see first steps taken toward establishing a consistent subpage policy. But I'm a bit confused regarding the scope of the closure. While there was a lot of back-and-forth regarding /Biography, no one objected to the parts of the proposal pertaining to /Plot, /Other realities, and /Non-valid sources, or the explicitly-marked implications for other policy pages. Is there a specific reason why these were excluded from the closing statement? – n8 (☎) 19:09, 23 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I tried very much leaning on the side of caution on this one, tbh. Yes, there wasn't any disagreement, but, on the other hand, I only saw one explicit support for each type of subpage (I apologized if users' "support" comments were in support of all of the above, individually, and not just the concept of using subpages, that was my reading of the situation); combining that with the lack of a sandbox properly displaying how each of these would properly work, once introduced, I felt best leaving them for our Part Two Thread.
 * But please don't read that as a sign of lack-of-faith on the working of your ideas, I would simply like to see more (explicit) supports for each type of subpage, to ensure we're not taking them too far, you see? Once we get part 2 rolling, I have no doubts these will join the approved-subpaged lists, and I'll probably support them myself. OncomingStorm12th ☎  19:22, 23 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Just for the record, I did completely support /Plot, /Other realities, etc. 19:30, 23 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Okay, and thanks for the kind comments OS12th. My understanding was that most commenters supported every part of the proposal, like Epsilon, but you're right that it wasn't completely explicit. Next time I write a multi-part proposal I'll request explicit assent on each of the sections from each respondent. Cheers! – n8 (☎) 19:44, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
