That's my understanding as well. Our Community Director always makes a site-wise "global" announcement within hours, if not minutes, once a TB motion is in place. Not sure why this motion should be any different? Does it mean a new protocol to make announcement for TB motions from now on?

Done!
ETA:
BTW, I don't know if there's enough support for this proposed forum among TBers but I like TB uses a clear forum name for this motion to include only PRC airlines.
I may be nitpicking but I doubt PRC refers to themselves as "Mainland" China. As far as I know, none of the "westerners" use "Mainland" to describe
PRC airlines. Only people in Taiwan refer to PRC as "Mainland" because of the history between China and Taiwan. I haven't encountered enough PRC folks but I learn they use
"inland" (內地) when it comes down to geographical reference. Since this motion is about
airlines per se, instead of destination and/or geography, why not just call a horse a horse, "China-based Airlines Forum" or "Airlines of People's Republic of China Forum?"
