Declined - Requested moves have a seven-day waiting period. The discussion has gotten a little hot, but that happens all the time on Wikipedia, and the closing administrator can gauge consensus in spite of any bad faith, assumptions of bad faith, ad hominems, etc. that occur on the page. If you become offended by anything said on the page, then simply ignore it because administrators are usually smart enough to see through it even without a rebuttal on your part.

Per the header, this RFC should have been deleted about seven days ago. There is really only one "certifier". There appears to be a second, Guy Macon, but in the "Views" section he states "I am not involved in the current dispute", which means he shouldn't have made himself a certifier.

Would an admin summarize Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Fæ? A close was requested at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Requests for closure/Archive 1#Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Fæ, and the RfC was delisted due to inactivity but was not summarized. A summary will allow the subject and participants to have a third-party list the RfC's findings.
When I saw http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard&oldid=493621214#User:Fae at WP:AN, I reviewed the RfC/U and found that unlike the most recent RfC/Us at Wikipedia:Requests for comment/User conduct/Archive it had not been summarized.
Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Philip Baird Shearer#Summary and Wikipedia:Requests for comment/GoodDay are two excellent examples of how complex RfC/Us are summarized. Cunard (talk) 07:14, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
Apologies to the community, I had not realized this discussion had been continuing. To make everything explicit, my close does not include any summary, other than the edit summary of closed due to inactivity and no consensus as listed on the archive page; this is not an official close by a community elected admin but a gnomework task because no one else will do it performed by an eponymous nobody. As there is currently an ongoing ArbCom case regarding Fae it probably doesn't matter at this point.
As to my inappropriate "summary," which is a talk page comment illustrating the potential difficulty an actual closer would have -- my actual statement is "this was just started by a bunch of editors who are all homophobes except all the ones who aren't" -- which is the union of two disjoint subsets which form the Universal set. No statement is made as the number of members in each set. I will also contend that an editor reading all of the RFC and all of the talk page will find my summary reflects what is actually there to a reasonable approximation.

Two weeks ago tomorrow, it was requested that the article Luka Magnotta be renamed as Murder of Lin Jun. Since we passed the 7-day mark after which the discussion could be closed, it has surprised me that no admin has done this already, given the contentious and high-profile nature of the topic. After a very active discussion over those first seven days, only one comment has been made on the request.
It seems pretty clear that there is no consensus for this move, and it's probably not unfair to say there is a consensus against the move. Either way, the rest of the activity on the talk page indicates that the question has become not whether we should rename Luka Magnotta but whether we should create Murder of Lin Jun as its own article. (Incidentally, attention to that discussion could also be helpful.) I've tried to be patient about this, but administrator attention and a decision will be very helpful in putting this discussion behind us so we can focus on the myriad other issues that have shown up there. Thanks, BDD (talk) 18:19, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Could someone be so kind to close the merger proposal of English national identity article. I think that user who proposed merger did not follow all necessary steps (he did not start the discussion) and there was no discussion about his proposal. I could start discussion myself, but since I do not support his proposal it would probably be absurd. There are articles about the other national identities, like Scottish national identity, Canadian identity, Taiwanese identity, Jewish identity... The article on "English national identity" obviously meets the general notability guideline because it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject (43,500 of them) --Antidiskriminator (talk) 12:04, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
