Is consensus for Raining Bats and Dogs 8c/+? It's on UKC at 8c but in the list it's 8c/+.

Surely it's very existence indicates that no consensus has been reached? What's wrong with doing the usual and giving it the higher grade until it gets its first female ascent?
I haven't done RBaD but understand it has never been given a slash grade other than on this list. I don't know how that came about but it has always been seen as top of the grade, not a slash grade. I don't think any routes at Malham are given slash grades AFAIK.
thread title is now inaccurate with the list.
I've also axed Randall from the list as there's a 'no trad routes, even if they are ~8c or harder' rule.
Totally on board with a title change, but I think Shark needs to do it? You can change it on a per-post basis but I think the original thread title stays as is unless there's some moderator intervention.
