If consensus is in the 80% range, why was 168... allowed his sysop rights back? The vote in that case was far from consensus.

There does seem to be very wide general support for this 'rule to consider'. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:How_to_revert_a_page_to_an_earl… So far there are 27 people supporting this rule and 8 against. That comes to ~77% in favor of the rule by my calculation. For polling purposes, we consider 80% to be consensus and thus binding, no? Thus all we may need to make this policy is a vote or two more in favor of the rule. I encourage everybody to consider this issue and vote their conscience. --mav --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard - Read only the mail you want.
