Policy discussion
Support
- Support as nom. Serpent
King 12:42, 8 July 2017 (EDT) - Support this is basically policy already, it just hasn't been written down before now, so I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be made official. Alex Parpotta the flying lobster! 13:14, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
- Support, but only as a policy. --- Monsieur Crow, Author Extraordinaire, 13:17, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
- Shut up and take my support! --
Beep (talk) 16:43, 8 July 2017 (EDT) - May be a little late, but support, this is the way I've been trying to do things personally and I have no problems with it
Nymbare and his talk 17:02, 8 July 2017 (EDT) - Support
A51 Trooper 19:42, 8 July 2017 (EDT) - Support, because we definitely need a clear-cut procedure for a consensus. Black Vulpine of the Furry Nation. Furries make the Internets go! :3 20:32, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
Oppose
Neutral
- Neutral leaning towards oppose. I'm not sure that there's even a need to explain the concept, and going too much into specifics could be overly restrictive and rigid.

Will this be considered a policy or a guideline?
--- Monsieur Crow, Author Extraordinaire, 13:10, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
- Not entirely sure at the present, although I think I am leaning more towards guideline. Serpent King 13:14, 8 July 2017 (EDT)
- I'd support as a policy, but not as a guideline; I feel this is something that should be considered a "core" policy of any Wiki.
Related to the idea of needing consensus for major template or style changes: perhaps we should specify seeking consensus for layout or design changes affecting a large number of pages at once? It's a recurring issue of someone deciding to make a change on 40 pages at once without having any discussion first, and trying to revert a ton of changes at once just to restore status quo during a talk page discussion is a real headache.
