This page is for the election of Bureaucrats.
 
=FAQ=
 
; 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. Unless said otherwise, 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.
 
=Rules=
; Rules for starting an election.
# When a Bureaucrat resigns, or loses his status due to demotion or inactivity an election is started immediately.
#*A Bureaucrat that hasn't made a single edit in one month is considered to be inactive and forfeits their status as bureaucrat.
# After 3 months with no elections on a bureaucrat position, an election is called for the bureaucrat position longest without an election.
# If, for any reason, an individual Bureaucrat position hasn't faced an election after 8 months, then an election is called after that period.
# The election ends after two weeks wiki time counting from the when the election is started.
# The candidate with the most votes wins the election.
# In the event of a tied vote the remaining bureaucrats will decide between the tied candidates.
 
; Rules concerning candidates
# All active users with the sysops status are automatically declared candidates for ''any vacant Bureaucrat positions''.
#* Users with at least 12 edits in the 30 days before the election are considered "active" for purposes of the election.
# The Bureaucrat whose position comes up for election if said election is started under rule 2 of '''Rules for starting an election''' is automatically declared a candidate.
#* Unless said otherwise, a bureaucrat who lost its powers through demotion cannot run for bureaucrat on the election that will fill its position
# A candidate can retract his own candidacy at any time.
 
; Rules concerning voting.
# All users have only one vote ''per bureaucrat position to be filled''.
# Users vote for a candidate by signing under the preferred candidates name.
#* Users can't cast more than one vote per candidate.
# Users may change their votes for a candidate as long as the election has not ended.
#* Multiple votes at the same time will be struck.
# Sockpuppetry is considered vandalism.

FAQ

  • What is a Bureaucrat?
    • A Bureaucrat (sometimes called a crat) is a user with the special ability to promote and demote users to and from administrative roles (i.e. Bureaucrat and System Operator) on Urban Dead Wiki.
    • Like other administrative roles on the wiki, Bureaucrats do not have any control over the game or its operation. Their responsibilities are strictly related to the wiki.
  • Who gets to be a Bureaucrat?
    • System Operators (usually called sysops) who are elected by the community can become Bureaucrats. For more information on how to become a sysop, read the Promotions page.
    • The wiki maintains two Bureaucrats at all times, with elections occurring every six months or in response to the demotion of a sitting Bureaucrat.
    • A sitting Bureaucrat can run for re-election, provided they meet all eligibility requirements (e.g. they're not inactive), with no limits on how many terms they can serve.
  • Who can vote?
    • All wiki users are allowed to vote. Users are eligible for one vote per seat that is up for election.
    • Sysops running in the election are allowed to vote for themselves.

Rules

Rules concerning the election.
  1. An election is started immediately upon the resignation or demotion of a sitting Bureaucrat.
  2. Both Bureaucrat seats are up for election every six months, on June 1st and December 1st.
  3. The election ends after two weeks, counting from the when the election is started.
  4. The candidates with the most and second-most votes win the election.
  5. In the event of a tied vote the currently sitting bureaucrats will decide between the tied candidates.
Rules concerning candidates.
  1. All active users with the sysops status are automatically declared candidates for any vacant Bureaucrat positions.
    • Users who are not eligible for automatic demotion by the Truly Inactive Sysops policy are considered "active" for purposes of the election.
  2. The Bureaucrats whose positions come up for election if said election is started under rule 2 of Rules concerning the election are automatically declared candidates.
    • Unless said otherwise, a Bureaucrat who is demoted due to inactivity is not eligible in the ensuing election to fill their seat.
  3. A candidate can retract their own candidacy at any time.
Rules concerning voting.
  1. All users have only one vote per Bureaucrat position to be filled.
    • This means that, in regular elections started under rule 2 of Rules concerning the election, each user has two votes. In unscheduled elections started under rule 1, each user has only one vote.
  2. Users vote for a candidate by signing under the preferred candidate's name.
    • Users cannot cast more than one vote per candidate.
  3. Users may change their votes for a candidate as long as the election has not ended.
    • Multiple votes at the same time will be struck.
  4. Sockpuppetry is considered vandalism.
