A request that was declined, and the reasoning

Documentation › Wiki requests promoted to docs maintainership review date

On the subject in the title: A request that was declined, and the reasoning Working notes rather than a conclusion.

Process question about how this site works.

I have read the guidelines and the trust-level page and I still have a question about the mechanism rather than the rule. Specifically, I would like to understand the reasoning behind it, because I suspect the reasoning is better than the rule sounds.

Not a complaint. If the answer is "because of a failure mode you have not seen yet", I would like to hear about the failure mode.

Coming back to the opening post, because the follow-up matters more than the original answer.

Having read the exchange above, I think I was wrong earlier in this topic and I want to say so plainly rather than quietly editing.

The correction was fair and I had been repeating something I had not checked carefully enough.

Correction requests: if you spot an error in a maintained page, note it here with the specific correction. The maintainer will review and update if justified.
