Template:CB-postpone/doc

Usage
This template posts a message box requesting a delay or postponement in a consensus-building discussion.

Guidelines for which resolution to use

 * If all parties in the discussion can live with it, meaning they react to a proposal with neutral to positive responses, use CB-consensus to declare a consensus has been reached, and to record what that decision was.
 * If all parties except one or a small group have made a genuine effort to achieve consensus, it is allowable by the Method for consensus building guidelines to exclude "spoilers" from a declaration of consensus. Use the more appropritate of CB-consensus or CB-supermajority to declare a consensus has been reached.  You must explicitly list those who were excluded from the result - it is not acceptable to ignore anyone.
 * If the discussion is unresolved due to subjects which need time for more research, use CB-postpone to suggest taking that time and coming back with the answer(s) to continue.
 * If a minority who oppose the result can accept making a minority statement, have one of them represent the minority and write their position as a user essay. Include a link to that when posting the majority consensus result with CB-majority.
 * If the discussion group finds it acceptable to refer the issue to a neutral third party, use CB-refer to state that conclusion. Include a link to the third party's page.
 * If consensus cannot be reached, use CB-deadlock to propose that the discussion should be abandoned as deadlocked.
