:Alright, let's begin our '''post-post-consensus''' :p. Just kidding. In all seriousness, is there possibly some compromise that could be found between the options in the original vote? I can't think of any myself, but that doesn't mean that there isn't some middle ground there. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 22:40, March 24, 2012 (UTC)
::I'm going to go ahead and bump this thread because imo we need to get to some sort of conlusion as things aren't that good how they are. As for the matter of compromises, I can't think of many except to lock the whole namespace, adopt that new creation policy (don't know where the link is, should be somewhere in this discussion, sorry) or leave it as is. Anyone else got any ideas that could be worth a mention? {{WHsig|04:17, March 30, 2012 (UTC)}}
:::Well, I think that we've seen a breakdown in our normal decision-making process. So, it's time to get a new process, at least regarding this decision. It's clear that we don't want the status quo, but how we proceed is not. So, here's what I suggest:
:::#We implement the [[wikipedia:Nominal group technique|Nominal group technique]] to decision-making, with some modifications.
:::#We allow a time period - about a week, probably - for users to list their ideas for solving the problem. This wouldn't be a time to discuss the solutions, either here or in other areas, but simply a time to put all possible ideas out on the table.
:::#We consolidate similar ideas, and then take the main consolidated ideas and discuss the pros and cons of each as a group, as well as answer any questions about each suggested approach.
:::#After we're satisfied with the outcome of that, we proceed to ranking the individual solutions by level of preference, with the idea preferred by the most people being implemented.
:::I realize this procedure may seem long and drawn-out, but previous efforts to make a decision have failed, so I don't see much of a choice other than to alter the process by which we make a decision. I'm very much open to other points of view on how we reach this decision, including the process we use. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">talk</font>]] · [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">blog</font>]]</sup>''' 05:11, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
