Support

  1. Support --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 16:25, 15 August 2012 (UTC) - Note also that I am open to changes in wording, which can be done by consensus after the vote.
  2. Support. I'd have preferred a shorter text (see talkpage), but this is good, too. IMO future changes in wording need no vote.​—msh210℠ (talk) 16:59, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
  3. Support —CodeCat 17:01, 15 August 2012 (UTC) (but I think it should be written as "talk page" with a space)
    Ruakh originally had it as "talk-page", I believe, but I shortened it. If it really bothers you, just fix your .js (in fact, editors who revert a lot probably should fix their .js so that it links to their talkpage, like my rollback edit summary does. --Μετάknowledgediscuss/deeds 17:10, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
  4. Support. What msh210 said. —RuakhTALK 17:16, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
  5. Support. Tho future changes may not need a vote, a discussion should precede those changes - except for minor and/or stylistic ones. --BiblbroX дискашн 22:41, 15 August 2012 (UTC)
    That's what I meant, too, above.​—msh210℠ (talk) 22:42, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
