| |
| | |
| == What is a Bureaucrat? ==
| |
| | |
| A '''bureaucrat''' (AKA ''crat'') is a user with the ability to promote and demote users for sysop and bureaucrat positions. The Urban Dead Wiki mantains two active bureaucrats at all times, with elections occurring every three months to promote a sysop into bureaucrat, filling the position of the one who has least recently had an election.
| |
| | |
| A bureaucrat whose position is being filled can run for reelection, with no limits on how many times a bureaucrat can remain in the position.
| |
| | |
| == Can I become a Bureaucrat? ==
| |
| | |
| Only '''System Operators''' (aka ''sysop'') can become bureaucrats. Users who are part of the Urban Dead Wiki community for a set period of time and which have made a certain number of edits can be promoted to sysop, as long as they get the rest of the community support. For more information on how to become a sysop, read the [[A/PM|sysop promotions page]].
| |
| | |
| System Operators can become bureaucrat if elected by the community. A sysop needs to be active in the previous months of the election in order to run for crat. If he becomes active AFTER the election begun, he will only be able to run for 'crat in the next election.
| |
| | |
| == Can I vote? ==
| |
| | |
| Any user can vote. You can only vote in one candidate per election, and any user who vote more than once will have all their votes stricken.
| |
| | |
| == Can I vote for myself? ==
| |
| | |
| If you are a sysop and eligible for voting, you can vote for yourself.

| == August Election == | | == Archive questions == |
| | |
| So, it's nearly the 15th Beurocrat election! And on the 15th, how fitting. So, what's the community opinion in the pre-election?
| |
| Link can't run because he's already a crat, Daranz and Swiers don't look like they'll have enough edits. That leaves everyone else as a potential candidate. Whether or not they run is a different matter. From the last election, looks like Conndraka will be pulling out.

| :::The account was pretty clearly purpose-made as either a meatpuppet or a sockpuppet; its first edit was to vote on Boxy's bid, and the IP traces back to the town Sexy, Jed, Nick and DDR all hail from. You connect the dots. We don't strike meatpuppets because you can't prove that they were actually contacted offsite, but here the proof is conclusive that ''something'' went down. We just don't know which variety of puppetry it was. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 10:41, 29 August 2009 (BST)

| :::::::and tbh the bbk doesnt really have vested intrests as a whole these days. Judging from the voting, and only because I dont really give 2 shits about what 2 cool do on a tactical scheme, it looks as if they dont agree on this issue either. Theres quite a few people in this city, and at one point, there was at least 40 UD players from our school alone. Could be anyone, but it wasnt anyone I know, and it wasnt from 2 Cool as Jed is in Sydney, and Nick might as well have just changed his own vote to Boxy rather than making an alt to cancel himself out. Actually changing his vote would have made a 2 vote swing so yeah. I can't answer for DDR though, I have no idea if he knows who it is or not, I'd have to wait for him to comment--{{User:Sexylegsread/sig}} 11:51, 29 August 2009 (BST)

| |
| ::::::::::I know the BBK archives aren't an Encyclopaedia of Wiki Info, but thats what we did a while back when our group hit 40 odd and we had an election. Myself and someone else tied and we had another round of voting, worked out ok.--{{User:Sexylegsread/sig}} 12:13, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| :::::::Oh you know what I mean Nick. Don't be a nitpick. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 12:03, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| ::::::::I used the 2 Cool/BBK thing because it's an easy way to talk about everyone in that area without having to go through and painstakingly name everyone. I'm not saying that you guys all got together and planned it out because as you say - you're obviously not all in agreement. But to try and say that it was some random other guy is kind of silly because of the fact that the vote was the very first edit the account made. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 12:03, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| :::::::::Well, if you read closely, I dont think it is a random guy. I just know its not me, and its not 2 Cool. As I said I cant answer for anyone else because I dont know the details of anyone else, and I also dont want to sit here and point fingers. Its up to you to read between those lines.--{{User:Sexylegsread/sig}} 12:10, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| ::::::::::Well my best guess outside of those people would be...DDR? DUN DUN DUN. {{User:Cyberbob240/Sig}} 12:13, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| :::::::::::As I am saying, I dont know if it is him or not, and I dont want to point fingers. But basically I dont check the wiki often enough and didnt even get my own vote in on time, I didnt check it until I got asked if Buzz Killington was me on Facebook. It isnt Jed or Nick for obvious reasons, and in the process of elimination, if it IS a sockpuppet, it would have to be DDR. But I dont know if it is, and if I did know I wouldn't jump on here shouting names because thats just low, wiki and irl are two different places for me. But I dont know if it is Charlie, I hope it isnt, because I cant ever imagine it being him. But then again, sometimes people use those images created to their advantage. I hope it isnt, tbh--{{User:Sexylegsread/sig}} 12:20, 29 August 2009 (BST)

| |
| :::::::::::::The account is obviously dodgy, but it wasn't me. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|BlueViolet}}-- 12:34, 29 August 2009 (BST)
| |
| ::::::::::::::And although I have no obligation to save any member of the BBK clique, it's worth noting that the BBK have a score of genuine users (IRL friends) at their disposal, it's beyond logic that they would use an account like this Buzz Killington user to meat/sockpuppet a vote. --{{User:DanceDanceRevolution/sigcode|BlueViolet}}-- 12:39, 29 August 2009 (BST)

| :Possibly due to your vast inactivity. A sysop is expected to be highly active so as to constantly maintain the wiki's admin tasks, and a bureaucrat is expected to be even more active so as to have a good understanding of the activity levels and reliability of the members of the community. {{User:Misanthropy/Sig}} 01:33, 12 April 2010 (BST)
| | :Meh, not actually an issue, since I never gave me own vote and would have done so had I noticed the tie, given that I was online when voting concluded. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 05:45, 15 December 2018 (UTC) |
| ::Indeed. Bureaucrat positions are only available to current sysops, and sysops have to meet certain criteria in order to be promoted to that position. When last you applied for promotion to sysop, you failed to meet the minimum activity requirements in order to be eligible for promotion. While those requirements can be waived in the case of widespread community support, I'm afraid that you didn't appear to have that widespread support at the time. Check the guidelines at the top of these pages and they should explain what's necessary for promotion, in terms of raw objective numbers and other, more subjective, measures. {{User:Aichon/Signature}} 01:49, 12 April 2010 (BST) | | ::Im just fucking with you.

| I for one would like to see a Bureaucrat who is politically neutral and keeps out of drama. Best person possible to be selecting new sysops.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 11:47, 11 July 2010 (BST)
| | There is nothing in the "Rules on voting" regarding a valid voting signature requiring a timestamp. It doesn't seem to affect the results, this time, but it's rather uncouth to have hidden rules that will disenfranchise you. --[[User:Starlingt|Starlingt]] ([[User talk:Starlingt|talk]]) 00:22, 22 December 2019 (UTC) |
| :Seriously? No offense to him, but he's barely on here, and being familiar with the drama is practically essential, especially on promotions. --[[Image:Umbrella-White.png|14px]][[User:MisterGame|<span style= "color: maroon; background-color: white">'''''Thadeous Oakley''''']][[Image:Umbrella-White.png|14px]]</span> 11:54, 11 July 2010 (BST)
| | :My striking was based on my interpretation of "singing" in ''"Users vote for a candidate by signing under the preferred candidate's name"'' as performing the standard signing action, which is equivalent to four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) and consists of the user's signature plus timestamp. |
| ::I will stand by my decision with the same right to vote every user has.--{{User:Yonnua Koponen/signature}} 11:57, 11 July 2010 (BST)
| | :That said, I've looked back through the last several years of crat elections and found exactly one vote ([http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki%3AAdministration%2FBureaucrat_Promotions&diff=2354338&oldid=2354308 one of these two of Revenant's]) that had the name portion of the signature but not the timestamp, and it wasn't struck. (I also found [http://wiki.urbandead.com/index.php?title=UDWiki:Administration/Bureaucrat_Promotions&diff=next&oldid=1991024 a vote that was struck for invalid signature], although it included a timestamp; so signature issues in general are potentially strikeable.) Would love other sop input but am happy to reinstate the votes (one for Gnome and one for DDR, not changing the outcome) if that's the consensus. {{User:Bob Moncrief/Sig}} 04:53, 22 December 2019 (UTC) |

I made an assumption based on other parts of the wiki. Suggestions, Historical votes and Policy votes all have specific voting rules so I assumed this was the same.
