While
voting and most discussion should occur on the main RfA page, sometimes discussions stray off-topic or otherwise clutter that page. The RfA talk page serves to unclutter the main RfA page by hosting discussions that are not related to the candidacy.
Please remain
calm and
civil in discussions on both pages, avoiding
personal attacks and
harassment. Uninvolved administrators can still fully intervene in RfAs.
Discussions should stay on-topic; consider moving or continuing discussions that are going off-topic elsewhere.
Move discussions not germane to the candidacy here, then link them with {{subst:
rfan|dm|name of section header}}, indented to the original vote. Be conservative in using the template; obvious trolls and disruptive participants
need not be noticed.
Otherwise, avoid starting discussions here if they would be of interest to RfA participants and can fit on the main RfA page; generally, discussions should begin at the "General comments" section or as an indented reply to a vote.
Gamaliel oppose
Yesterday, I
criticizedGamaliel on his talkpage, after which he
blanked the talkpage and
voted oppose with the comment Oppose per the learned opinion of my dear friend Puedo in this RfA. That's not cool and honestly looks like trolling. Although I opposed Nosebagbear, he doesn't deserve
WP:POINTY oppose votes like that. I hope there was a better reason for opposing. --

Now you're criticizing me for agreeing with you? Maybe you find something productive to do and move on with your life. Edit some articles maybe.

It’s not a problem if Gamaliel happens to agree with you on this one issue. I’m sure you’re not injured too much by his comment. It’s fine to disagree about an issue and argue vigorously in context of that issue, but importing disagreements into other issues is unhelpful. The sarcasm, while maybe not ideal, is not too severe.
