AVID:Requests for Comment/Clarify Who can close a proposal
Clarify who can close a proposal
I've noticed that there is not much clarity as to who can close an RFC among staff. AVID:Site Staff currently states that only a bureaucrat is capable of doing so. However I've seen on occasion some administrators have closed them. Hence, I am making the following three proposals to clarify who can close them. (Lets chat!) 07:24, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
1. Bureaucrats Only
Make it so officially only Bureaucrats can close RFCs.

2. Bureaucrats and Admins
A bureaucrat or an admin is capable of closing (admins only in the case of SNOW closure or author retraction)

Comment: gonna be real, this is the proposal I'd be most likely to vote for had I not created the proposal. (Lets chat!) 13:34, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
- You have every liberty to vote on a proposal you created, the only part that is discouraged is the closing bureaucrat voting on the proposal. --Raidarr (talk) 13:49, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
3. Any Member of Staff
Anyone with a staff role can close (Admins and below only in the case of SNOW closure or author retraction).
