The Proposal
There have been numerous discussions recently on whether or not to rename certain aspects of the wiki to what some view as less problematic names.
The current proposals are as follows:
- MNB Geohash -> Humbled by Mother Nature
- MNIMB Geohash -> Mother Nature's Humbler
- Virgin Graticule -> Many options, mainly First Exploration.
The option of including these names as alternatives instead of replacing them exists and could be applied via a parameter in the achievement.
Alternative names are welcomed if you believe the currently listed options need work.
Discussing a Proposal
The discussion of this proposal is similar to that of the proposed achievements. Add a comment to Talk:Renaming Proposal with one of the four following options:
- Support the proposal - love it, like it, approve it, feel the sport will be better for its existence
- Do not oppose - think it's a bit dumb, boring, meh, or of no personal interest, but won't hurt anything
- Oppose - there is a specific stated reason why this renaming should not occur
- Needs work - this might be viable but has problems the way it is
Alternatively, this proposal has had a lot of recent discussion in the Discord server. If you'd like to participate there, you can do so at this link: discord.gg/BvRfGat
Passing Proposal
Once the proposal has been open for 1 month (2024-03-18), any outstanding opposition will be considered. If any opposition to the renaming is strong and cannot be settled, then the change(s) will not occur. Otherwise, if oppositions are minor or those opposing are able to be swayed, the majority vote will be taken.
As far as it is possible, any change will ensure that everyone is happy with the end result.
