A Couple of Issues

  1. A lot of the scheduling votes are brought here half baked. I think a mandatory discussion period before voting can begin (like A/PD has) would be beneficial.
  2. To get a new scheduled deletion, 50% majority is needed. To get a new SD criterion, 66% majority is needed (because it needs to go through A/PD). Seems backwards.

I definitely agree with the discussion period. Heaps of people vote in the first day, before any objections can be raised, and few votes are ever changed. This latest 0x0 image one needs removing and re-starting if it's only supposed to apply to the 0x0 revision, because people voted on it before such issues were even raised, and now others are voting yes on it, in a modified form which is totally different to what the description is -- boxy talkteh rulz 22:08 3 August 2009 (BST)
I agree with the discussion period, and the voting thing seems like common sense (especially since scheduled deletions don't need to be taken to a page before being deleted.) Linkthewindow  Talk  22:19, 3 August 2009 (BST)
I think it's pretty fine. If people want to vote for something else then they should just vote no like they are doing with the 0x0, and if I want to revise it I can withdraw it and redo it. As for the 50% majority, I think this is fine. Most of this stuff is black and white and the porn scheduled has proved to us that the wiki doesn't break before a bad scheduled is passed and then removed again. We just have to endure a bit of due drama as a result. The deletions scheduling is all about removing needless bureaucracy, I'd hate to fill the voting process up with the same thing. --ϑϑ 23:10, 3 August 2009 (BST)
No but it is a nuisance and a waste of everyone's time. And the porn one wasn't a bad scheduled it's just a needless one since it already existed. --Karekmaps?! 04:17, 4 August 2009 (BST)

People are voting in the No then Yes way. Can that even be tallied as a vote anywhere considering it doesn't fully support either side?--SirArgo Talk 20:29, 5 August 2009 (BST)
