:::Hello! I'd like to thank you all for your input, about closing I'd like to say that whether the proposal is reopened or not and whether I'm consul or not in the end I'll continue to help out on TestWiki and improve my flaws. Even if the closure of the proposal is not reverted, I would like to hear your opinion, even informally, on whether I should become a consul and what I should correct.

::::I agree with @[[User:AlPaD|AlPaD]] that a more of informal approach should occur next. I’m not sure why all 3 of you are waiting till a few hours after closing to bring this up, when you should’ve voted originally. I’ve messaged @[[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]] on Discord informing him of this discussion. [[User:Globe|Globe]] ([[User talk:Globe|talk]]) 11:19, 4 July 2023 (UTC)
:::::As mentioned, I literally just found out this existed yesterday when I came back into cell reception. It's a holiday weekend for many in the US, so several folks in the conversation may have been outside internet service for the last few days like myself.
:::::Regardless of reasons/AlPaD's qualifications, I don't personally find that expedited closure with one vote and no consultation with other consuls reflects the 'community consensus' defined in the appointment criteria, but it's not my place to make that call - I simply wanted to raise it as a concern.

:[[User:NotAracham|NotAracham]], thank you for your question. The discussion was open for a week. If I had concerns about the nominee, I would not have closed and would have expressed a view. I did take care into ensuring it was compliant with the current [[TestWiki:Policies|policies]] and, in particular, in terms of precedents, I followed [[TestWiki:Community portal/Archive 2#Request for Consul by Zppix|this Consul request]], which Void closed as successful. As with this request, it, too, had only a single participant other than the nominee. Even in my close, I even borrowed and varied Void's wording.
