Obavijesti o ovim stranicama - Notifications about these pages

The purpose of this section is to keep track of who was notified about these pages, by whom, when, and why. This follows the recommended guideline to prevent canvassing. Please do not archive this section. Miranche (talk) 22:40, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

Specific canvassing considerations for this page were discussed here. Please feel free to start a new talk topic if you believe there are issues that have not been properly met by this discussion, or if you believe any of the notifications were improper. Miranche (talk) 04:06, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Close and archive

If there are no objections, I will close the evidence pages at 00:00 UTC on 2014-02-26, and these talk pages 24 hours later. Miranche (talk) 18:04, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Ok, closing. Miranche (talk) 05:28, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Closed. Please see the archives for past discussions. Miranche (talk) 00:00, 27 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello Miranche, thank you for this work. Were any conclusions drawn from the RfC? Normally a closure comes with a summary and directions for any followup action. –SJ talk  23:38, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

Sj, you're welcome, and thank you for the kind word. Sorry if it isn't clear from this section: the evidence pages were closed because all the time periods (for submissions, commenting etc.) have expired. There aren't any conclusions but this wasn't the aim, rather it was to gather information relevant to the main RfC, and all the summary, directions etc., if any, should eventually emerge there. Right now the main RfC seems largely inactive. Miranche (talk) 22:25, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you. Who would you expect to close that? –SJ talk  03:25, 14 March 2014 (UTC)
