This page describes the process, including instructions for how and why to create a request for comment (RfC), to participate in one, and to end one.
RfC is one of several processes available within Wikipedia's dispute resolution system. Alternative processes include third opinion, reliable sources noticeboard, neutral point of view noticeboard, the dispute resolution noticeboard, and, for editors' behavior, the administrator's incident noticeboard and binding arbitration.
