-== RE: "what's wrong with RFCs?" ==
-I hope you don't mind me responding here. The last thing that discussion needs is my long winded response to your question. To answer your question, nothing is wrong with RFCs. I volunteer a portion of my time commenting on them. However, this topic is coming up over and over. Ever consensus case has ended in inclusion. Over the last 18 months, there hasn't been a consensus case to exclude an infobox. There comes a time to document the community's position to avoid pointless RFCs on articles like [[Gioachino Rossini]] which will inevitably become a RFC. That article's TALK features the same people bickering about the topic that are in the infobox proposal discussion. The last two proposals on this topic were drafted by editors who had no long term history with that conflict that goes back 15 years. We just saw the dysfunction, the lack of good faith, and battleground nature of the discussions, and hoped to do something about it. My first engagement with this topic an IP editor threw a "contentious topic" notice on my TALK about it. When independent arbitrators have asked that the community do something and members of the community say "it's not a problem" then that doesn't really make sense when the topic keeps coming up. I hope that helps answer your question. Thanks for contributing! [[User:Nemov|Nemov]] ([[User talk:Nemov|talk]]) 21:26, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
-:I see all those RFCs as being a sign of a healthy and active editorship. I don’t see them as “disfunction” but as the process functioning as designed.  I think they are a good thing.
-:And … every so often…  the consensus has been: “Huh… You know what, in ''this'' case, it turns out we ‘’shouldn’t'' have an infobox after all”. so I’m not convinced. [[User:Blueboar|Blueboar]] ([[User talk:Blueboar#top|talk]]) 22:13, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
