Proposed collaboration on a close
I have noticed you do an excellent job of closing old discussions on WP:ANRFC. I have seen Talk:United_States_Senate_election_in_South_Dakota,_2016#Request_for_Comment:_Should_Kurt_Evans_be_listed_as_.22Failed_to_Qualify.22.3F listed for long time and was working on a close. After investigating, I see that it will have to be a difficult one, especially since the candidate is involved directly in the debate. This is probably why it has lingered. I think it needs an endorsed or multi-editor close, so the editor in question does not perceive it as one opinion, and I would like you to assist me. If I write up a proposed close and email it to you, would you then endorse it once posted? If this works for you, let me know and we can work out some process. I will probably also contact one or two other experienced closers with the same request. Thanks. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 15:51, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
- Eggishorn - thanks so much for your kind words and I think you're correct that it's past time it be closed. Also, a multi-editor close would be a great idea. Unfortunately, I was a participant in that RfC so it would be inappropriate for me to be one of those editors. If I can help in any other way, however, please do not hesitate to let me know. DarjeelingTea (talk) 16:36, 15 February 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for your encouragement. I understand and appreciate your concerns, and I think they are well-placed. This has already been to ANI once, as I'm sure you know, so I certainly don't want to provide an excuse to bring it back there. Thanks again. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 16:52, 15 February 2017 (UTC)

Thank you
Thank you for assessing this RfC in detail and explaining the next steps. I lost interest in the discussion as few other editors were participating... I wonder how the next discussion will play out! Regards, — Sunnya343✈ (háblame • my work) 04:27, 16 February 2017 (UTC)
- No problem, Sunnya343✈! Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance. DarjeelingTea (talk) 05:58, 16 February 2017 (UTC)

Rollback granted
Hi DarjeelingTea. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — MusikAnimal talk 03:13, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
