How long will it take before the decision can be made to close the Dutch WikiNews? Who actually makes the final decision? --Jeroen 20:44, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess 7 weeks, and the person who proposed it... Guido den Broeder 15:54, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The proposing for closing a project is not very regulated. Generally, it is believed that:

  • Discussion goes on until consensus has been reached.[1]
  • Votes do not count (also because there is no strict time limit), arguments do.[1][2][3]
  • Local bureaucrats have no influence on the final decision. The decision is presumably made by the LangCom.[3]
  • Therefore, a discussion is almost never (look through this list) closed by the initiator.

Anonnotice

Please, could someone remove the n:nl:MediaWiki:Anonnotice, because there is no proposal currently because it has been closed. Virtlink 22:03, 24 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I changed text to De discussie om deze Nederlandstalige Wikinews te sluiten vanwege te weinig dynamiek op Metawiki is afgerond. HenkvD 08:31, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Who decided that it is finished for the project? It is strange that some people think they can decide for others. Romaine 16:35, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New activities on Dutch Wikinews

I see, now, that Dutch Wikinews has activities for weeks, summer hollidays are finished now. The vote is made, mainly, by wikipedian without reason explained why it must be closed. ? One question : Who decided that it is finished for the project ?--Bertrand GRONDIN – Talk 13:51, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
