Hi @Northamerica1000: Take a look for which one you prefer at the "Release history" table: "Distributor", "Licensee", "Marketer" or "Promoter". 2001:D08:2910:6981:17C3:AC68:5A64:93C9 (talk) 18:15, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi. I'm going to pass on becoming involved in the discussion there. North America1000 10:09, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

I respectfully disagree with the closing statement, although I agree with the close. There was a consensus against deletion of the content. There was not a consensus to retain the content. In particular, the MFD participants did not review the content. The reason that this makes a difference is that I think that the editors reserve the right to review the content of any of the individual pages and nominate them for deletion. Would it be possible to change the closing statement to say that there was a consensus against deletion at this time, or that there was not a consensus to delete? We didn't agree that the content should be kept, but that the nomination was flawed. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:44, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
