:I like the new system - the last two requests were dealt with very well and everyone commenting on them seemed to understand the new process and followed the new rules set very well. All in all, I think the Wiki is really going to benefit from the new ruleset.

== Something else ==
 
This is another thing that has been under the hood for a while now and as it's loosely related to an RfX system, I figured I should use this thread to bring it up.
 
Currently, there's a nomination awaiting a response from the nominee. This nomination was made 1 week ago. As we're using a system where only one request is processed at a time, this can be somewhat of an issue should that nomination remain in its current state indefinitely and possibly being a blockade to any other requests/nominations waiting to take place while we deal with this one.
 
This wouldn't be such a problem if we allowed multiple requests at a time, but as the majority have already stated their desire for one request at a time there's no point continuing to look at that idea unless those who supported the one request rule would consider backtracking (I'm not expecting any miracles). The only other way is to implement a timeout period before a request is sidelined in favour of newer requests, which in my view seems somewhat unfair to the nominee should they be on a short-but-long-term break from the wiki. Forgive me if it seems like I'm trying to rush RfX requests but leaving nominations to sit there indefinitely isn't, in my opinion, good practice.
 
I feel this is worth some kind of discussion. {{LabSig}} 14:14, July 5, 2013 (UTC)
