This is the second time recently that I have seen this administrator close a move discussion as move, when there was in fact no consensus. I ask that this decision be overturned, or closed by an alternative admin.

Closing admin's comment. As well as the short summary at the RM, I have given a more detailed explanation of my decision at
User talk:Jenks24#Windermere, Cumbria which participants here may feel worth reading.

I think the close was a fair assessment in line with
WP:RMCI. However
Jenks24, it may have been better to leave it open a bit longer to allow time for a response to my last comment on the RM. Re-listing on that basis alone would be waste of time, so I'm inclined to endorse the closure, even though as the original proposer of the RM I could be seen as favouring
the wrong version.
Could you also clarify the situation with the other RM closure mentioned above? If that closure was improper, it may be relevant to this one.--

Thanks for that. At first glance the other closure may have been problematic, and its possible you are giving undue weight to certain parts of the guidance (favouring disambiguation over naming convention). In one sense both RMs were the same, with the original titles ambiguous and naming conventions not giving a good alternative. However at Pomona there was much more discussion about both parts of that, while on Windermere the discussion was mostly about the naming convention. IMO the discussion gave policy-based reasons to ignore the naming convention which were not effectively countered, so I stand by my original assessment of the closure (though again, my opinion probably doesn't count for much here :) ).--

Endorse close. The close was clearly within
WP:RMCI. Well explained, too.--

Endorse close as within
WP:RMCI and the explanations provided here, on page talk, and his talk page.
