Forum:Administration Elections

The latest run of administration elections - new policies in effect.

Requirements
In order to qualify for an administration position, you must meet the following requirements as specified for each position:
 * Administrators
 * Must have at least 1000 constructive edits, meaning no spam or vandalism.
 * Must have been active on the wiki for at least 6-8 weeks. For users who make new accounts, time spent on the previous account counts to time on the wiki.
 * If the user has been banned for vandalism, spam, or trolling, they must wait four weeks after the ban is lifted before they are viable for adminship. This time does not count to time spent active on the wiki. The ban does not count if it was unjustified; such distinction is up to the discretion of the current admins.
 * Nominee must know and adhere to the policies of the wiki, and must actively enforce these rules as an admin.
 * The user must be capable of being respectful and civilized to all Users, and must do so.
 * Any admin who is legitimately stripped of his/her rank two or more times will not be allowed to run for administration again.


 * Bureaucracy
 * Must have at least 7000 constructive edits, meaning no spam or vandalism.
 * Must have been active on the wiki for at least 3 months. Time spent on previous accounts does not count.
 * User must have at least 6 weeks of adminship experience.
 * If the user has been justly banned twice, they are immediately exhempt from any bureaucracy nomination.
 * Rules 4 and 5 for Administration Qualification also must be adhered to for Bureaucracy Qualifications.


 * Chat Moderators
 * Must have at least 850 constructive edits, meaning no spam or vandalism.
 * Must have been active at least 6 weeks.
 * Must not have been previously kickbanned from chat (for a time of 12 hours or more) more than twice.

Process
During nominations, voting is split between administrators (admins and 'crats) and the rest of the User population (including chat mods). During the voting period, admins and Users alike will cast their votes on each nomination, with admins specifically required to vote based on their impartial opinion of the nominee's competency and reliability, while Users vote based on their general opinion of the nominee. A nominee must have the majority vote in favor for both admin and user voting in order to gain a position. Should a nominee have majority vote in User votes but not admin votes or vice-versa, the nomination will not pass. Should there be a tie in one voting section, whether or not the nomination passes will be based on the other voting section.

Nominees are to explain why they believe they should be promoted and why they believe they are qualified. It can be simple and concise, or it can be a full paragraph or two if necessary. But nominees are required to explain why they believe they should be promoted. Should a nominee be nominated by someone other than themselves, it is up to the nominee to explain their reasoning. What position a User is nominated for must be specified as well.

Reason: Short, sweet, and to the point; I have done a very large amount of work for this wiki in the short amount of time I've been here. I'm tired of having to go through the admins and jump through hoops to get things done, and I want to be able to help the users with the issues they run into in the future.

I support him and his work, he deserves to be an admin. Unidentified Life Form  294  23:27, September 1, 2012 (UTC)

He is one of the people who I believe can really help this out. If voting for him helps him help us more, than I will gladly vote for GD. So I hear you don't like ninjas.  We may have a problem.  TheSkullWolf 23:30, September 1, 2012 (UTC)

He does more work than many of the other admins. He shows how much he cares for this wiki day in and day out. He's a genius that can do anything and knows the wiki right off the bat. He listens to policies and everything. I can't think of a reason why not to vote for GD. Minato  Arisato  23:38, September 1, 2012 (UTC)

Game has my vote, per reasons above me. It&#39;s MY party, so I&#39;ll die if I want to. (talk) 20:57, September 2, 2012 (UTC) He seems like a trustworthy person, so I support him. Frozen Scorpio (talk) 21:24, September 2, 2012 (UTC) there is no "f" in "way."
