Revision as of 22:32, 10 September 2020


Your opinions matter!

Due to WiKirby's recent surge in community interaction, we have seen fit to implement a formal proposals page. Up to this point, proposal-handling has been informal, with larger ones handled via referendum, but this page serves to clear away any ambiguity and provide a set of procedures for suggesting changes to the wiki, whether that be the handling of certain content, or changes and additions to policy.

How to make a proposal

All proposals must be made using the template provided below, posted under the "Current Proposals" heading:

==(insert proposal here) (insert date here)==
(insert details of proposal here and sign with ~~~~)

Once a proposal is made, the voting period begins (see voting regulations below). Voting period for a proposal ends two weeks after it starts, at 11:59:59 P.M. UTC on the 14th day of voting. An administrator can veto a proposal at any time, although such action should always be justifiable and agreed upon by multiple admins. Administrators should not use this right to add more weight to their own opinions.

Restrictions

Users may propose many different changes or additions to the wiki. The following things, however, may not be voted on:

  1. Proposals which target specific users (such as bestowing or removing ranks or rights).
  2. Proposals which violate the law, as specified in the general content policy.
  3. Proposals which seek to overturn a recently (within the last 8 weeks (or 56 days)) approved proposal.
  4. Re-submitted proposals which were recently (within the last 8 weeks (or 56 days)) rejected.

Current Proposals

Tweak minimum voting requirements for proposals (September 10th, 2020 - September 24th, 2020)

So, when I first set up this system, I sought to only allow senior users to vote by specifying that users could not vote on proposals unless they had been registered on the wiki for at least two weeks and have made at least 100 edits to mainspace. While I still believe that users should not be able to make accounts and then immediately vote on proposals, I have a simpler method of determining eligibility.

I propose that voting rule #1 be changed to read as follows:

  • Proposal adding and voting is open only to registered users who have attained autopatrol status or above.

This to me will simplify the process and give the WiKirby staff a little more freedom in determining voting rights, since autopatrol can be granted at any time to users who show good editing spirit. Let me know what you guys think of this idea. --Samwell (talk) 15:38, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Support
  1. You, my friend, are a genius. I agree with this change; 100 edits and two weeks is kinda cumbersome when it would be easier to have it bestowed to you sooner as long as the edits aren't all bad. – Owencrazyboy17 (talk) 16:03, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
  2. I wasn't actually aware that the requirement wasn't just being autopatrol. Sounds good to me. StrawberryChan (talk) 19:35, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
  3. Per all. ---PinkYoshiFan 22:32, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

Discussion

Also, if this passes, I will create a badge template similar to the staff rank badges to hand out to all active users who have autopatrol status, so there's no confusion. Y'all will get this badge on your user pages: SKC Mini Bronze.png --Samwell (talk) 15:43, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
