Wiktionary talk:Votes/pl-2022-01/RFD voting policies

For proposal 1, can we make it clear that IP editors are still welcome to contribute to RFD discussions? It's conceivable that the RFD banner on the entry may invite useful opinions from drive-by readers on rare occasions, and such a contribution could be very valuable for a language with no active editors.

Backwards
The burden of proof/persuasion should be on the editors wanting to keep an entry, the same as it is in RFV. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 14:58, 11 January 2022 (UTC)


 * @Vox Sciurorum This vote does not change anything apart from what is mentioned. All are free to persuade and make points in their direction. —Svārtava [t•c•u•r] 15:22, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I think the burden of proof will remain on the editors wanting to keep an entry. The third policy, for example, announces that an entry will be deleted (not kept) if no one participates. That's a presumption in favor of deletion. Imetsia (talk) 17:30, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Redirect & T-Hub Votes
@Imetsia Sorry for bringing this up so late, but for the consensus votes, how would redirect & t-hub votes fall into the consensus decision? Sometimes it's a bit confusing how to sort of determine what best to do with an entry when there's like 4 redirect votes, 2 delete votes, 3 keep votes, and maybe some stray t-hub votes, especially when folks (including myself from time to time) will vote like "keep or t-hub", so maybe there could be some clarity on that?

 * Because the vote doesn't mention anything about it, the status quo would remain the same with respect to that: It's at the discretion of the closer. And because the vote has already started, I can't really edit it to iron out how to count redirect/t-hub votes.
 * If it were me, redirects would be counted as keep votes. If the entry is kept, then I'd look for whether, among the group of keep + redirect votes, there are more keeps or redirects. And I'd decide on that basis. Imetsia (talk) 20:37, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Got it, thanks! AG202 (talk) 21:22, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
