*: {{ping|Marc marc}} The recommended place for discussion stays the Talk page on wiki. I don't force people to participate in discussions on the new forum. I only change where announcements are made. I have shown that there are enough ways to subscribe to announcements on the new forum (also get notifications via email). People can then discuss the proposal on the talk page if they don't like discussing on the new forum --[[User:Cartographer10|Cartographer10]] ([[User talk:Cartographer10|talk]]) 17:23, 9 October 2022 (UTC)
*:: '''your''' recommended place for discussion stays the Talk page on wiki, saying that it is a generalization doesn't change the reality that tagging is widely used (the wiki surely works very well for slow and simple discussions, where everyone has time to read the notification before the next message, it doesn't work for fast discussions (you don't get a 2nd notification if you don't mark the 1st as read in the wiki, so you also don't get the 2nd content by email), nor for complex discussions (trying to quote a piece of message to reply to it, it's not convenient in the wiki)
when it comes to the place of discussion, yes you said that it is easy for tagging people to all subscribe to the forum so that you don't have to post a message when a proposal is made. but you obviously don't understand that some people don't want an additional place and that this problem will disappear the day the forum will be mature enough to be used by email as well, which will allow a unified communication instead of an additional fragmentation [[User:Marc marc|Marc marc]] ([[User talk:Marc marc|talk]]) 10:01, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

{{vote|no}} I think it is too early. People have to warm to the new forum first. I can see that once this has happened there might be a natural tendency for some things to move to the new forum and then we can think about changing the rules. But for now, things work well enough. Frankly, I don't share the rationale above - someone who proposes a new tag will already have to set up the wiki page and read up on the process, will one extra small thing really discourage them? They don't even have to sign up to the mailing list, they can just ask someone else to post the announcement there. I don't see the need to rush this and I also sense some disrespect towards the mailing list community in the proposal, as if one wanted to make the mailing list obsolete as quickly as possible. --[[User:Woodpeck|Woodpeck]] ([[User talk:Woodpeck|talk]]) 09:38, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
{{vote|abstain}} Personally, I won't sign up for the forum, because I simple don't want to sign up for another platform for OSM; I'm content enough with the mailing list. [[User:B-unicycling|B-unicycling]] ([[User talk:B-unicycling|talk]]) 09:57, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
