It wasn't my responsibility to have known that there was a previous merger proposal in any place other than here, or even to have gone gallivanting around to see if there might be. It's your job to make sure that the distinction is clarified here, not anybody else's job to read your mind to know that there was some discussion elsewhere. My job begins and ends with looking at this page, and noticing that all you did was to resubmit this for another kick at the can without making any changes after the last time it was rejected, and it's not my responsibility to have known anything about any other discussions that didn't take place on this page. And furthermore, that merger discussion features just one other participant besides you preemptively opposing it yourself as part of the process of even initiating it, so that in no way qualifies as any sort of "consensus" that I should take seriously either. "I opposed it myself right in the nomination, and got one other person to agree with me, so BOOYA!" is not how consensus works around here. Bearcat (talk) 19:58, 8 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
