The RFC bot takes down RFC tags after 30 days have passed. The editor who closed the discussion didn't realize this either. I replied to his concern with the relevant links to the RFC here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Research#Making_a_policy_rfc It was that post that prompted the switch the closing decision from invalid RFC to valid RFC and policy.
For what it is worth, I tried to advertise this proposed policy as closely to the recommendations of WP:Policy and WP:RFC as I could.
We'll keep pushing. Your participation is invaluable.

The point is well taken that the proposal was not that well advertised and I still haven't found a link to the RFC.

The Wikipedia:Research policy on subject recruitment on Wikipedia has made its way through RFC and is now accepted as a policy on English Wikipedia.

Thanks to all who helped draft and shape the policy. In the coming weeks, look for the creation of SubjectRecruitmentBot, and the starting of SRAG (the Subject Recruitment Approvals Group). Drop by the talk page and say hello if you're interested in helping.
Good job, although it appears somebody wants to delete it :)

Indeed, good job! Congratulations to everyone for working on it. As this goes on I hope the bugs will be worked out through discussion.
The deletion nomination is questionable and looks like it's being shot down, fortunately :)
