Preamble

Some recent (and old) discussion on changes to the A/RE system, 'crats, and maybe other stuff warrants a policy discussion. Here are some pointers/options discussed around the wiki:

  • No more automatic A/REs.
  1. Only do A/RE when misconduct case appears.
  2. Only do A/RE when community calls for it.
  3. Only do A/RE when the sysop submits themself for it.
  4. Only do A/RE when sysop is about to be Truly Inactive.
  5. Only do annual A/RE for all sysops at once.
  6. No more A/REs. Sysop (more-or-less) for life.
  • Still automatic A/REs.
  1. Perhaps less frequent A/REs.
  • Make all sysops bureaucrats.
  1. Only those sysops with over one year of sysopness.
  2. Just make all sysops bureaucrats.
  3. At least have fewer bureaucrat elections.
  4. Make more sysops, but not all, bureaucrats.
  • Make more users sysops.
  1. An old suggestion, but some have suggested a lower threshold for making people sysops.

The general rationale for these changes is that the A/RE and A/BP process is annoying and needless as-is.

Feel free to talk on the talk page, or add a suggestion here if you want to be more assertive. Feel free to suggest changes in other rules for sysops and bureaucrats if it makes these or other changes more palatable.

Policy Change Proposed

  1. All sysops will be re-evaluated on Urban Dead's Birthday, July the 3rd.
    Voting period will be extended from one week to two weeks to accommodate the mass of sysops and voters during a potentially busy time.
  2. Bureaucrat voting will occur once every six months, on June the 1st and December the 1st.

Voting Section

Voting Rules
Votes must be numbered, signed, and timestamped. They can take one of two forms:
  • # comments ~~~~
    or
  • # ~~~~

Votes that do not conform to the above will be struck by a sysop.

The only valid voting sections are For and Against. If you wish to abstain from voting, do not vote.
