In this instance, the confusion arose not because of an underlying
expectation that community consensus will be sought, but because
Brandon Harris explicitly stated that it would be (and neglected to
mention that he was referring to wikis other than the English
Wikipedia).

This, of course, was an honest mistake (and quite a minor one).
