| "Official Language" article on Wikipedia: |
| Typically a nation's official language will be the one used in that nation's courts, parliament and administration. |
Simple proposal: English (American/British dialects notwithstanding) is the only language to be used on UDWiki:Administration and its subpages. (e.g. A/D/S, where the inspiration for this policy came from.)
Non-English votes (e.g. some of the current ones on A/D/S) are to be struck and remain uncounted in tallies until rectified., and non-English commentary is to be removed (e.g. on A/M), and if persistently replaced, the offending user is to be sent to A/VB for bad faith by obfuscating their commentary.
This policy has absolutely no bearing outside of UDWiki:Administration and its subpages, save for official sysop actions, such as deletion comments and warnings - these must also be in English.
