This page is for the election of Bureaucrats.

Rules

Rules for starting an election.

1. 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 as inactive and forfeits his status as bureaucrat.
2. After 3 months with no elections on a bureaucrat position, an election is called for the bureaucrat position longest without an election.
3. If, for any reason, an individual Bureaucrat position hasn't faced an election after 12 months, then an election is called after that period.
4. The election ends after two weeks wiki time counting from the when the election is started.
5. The candidate with the most votes wins the election.
6. In the event of a tied vote the remaining 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 with at least 12 edits in the 30 days before the election are considered "active" for purposes of the election.
2. 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
3. A candidate can retract his own candidacy at any time.

Rules concerning voting.

1. All users have only one vote per bureaucrat position to be filled.
2. Users vote for a candidate by signing under the preferred candidates name.
   • Users can't 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.

The next bureaucrat election will start on 1 April 2010, at 0:11 or something for DDR's position. I'm probably wrong, so someone should correct me. --ZsL 00:43, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

With pleasure. I believe my terms ends in March. --

January 1st + 3 months = April 1st.--Yonnua Koponen ^{Talk ! Contribs} 15:41, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Meh. I was promoted halfway through September so for the last 3 months I've considered it that. I didn't take into account the time it took to do Box's bid. --

My birthday, actually. Don't change it! --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 02:37, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

I got it right? Nice. --ZsL 17:21, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Yep. First a christmas election, then an April Fool's election. Hurrah! --

1. Someone who I actually trust to be impartial, unbiased and otherwise fair in his rulings, all traits the last bureaucrat definitely didn't have. --Thadeous Oakley 08:26, 1 April 2010 (BST)

   It's almost like your entire existence on this wiki is geared towards making offhand and wrong comments about me. If it were anyone else I'd consider taking a hint but since it's you I'm actually flattered. --

    

    

    

    

   11:47, 1 April 2010 (BST)

   Actually, nevermind, after looking at your contributions I've realised that non-confronting me with pathetic little quips is only part of your current schedule, mixed with spamming WN at newbies and then never following up on the help they need. Shit, I stand mistaken. --

   Aren't these comments supposed to be under my vote? :P -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 12:01, 1 April 2010 (BST)

   Lol! Nice ;D Unfortunately though there is a vast difference between WN'ing newbies 5 times a day, and then making 50 constructive edits, to WNing users 5 times a day and then making 5 edits a week whingeing about a)DDR or b)nazism. Oh and you actually follow up on the newbie screwups to help wiki upkeep, Iscariot. --

   Ha! It's after midday, so it counts, and I have the diff so you can't take it back :P You said I made constructive edits, I'm never going to let you live that down :P -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 12:12, 1 April 2010 (BST)

   I don't mind admitting if it you do, you know. If things don't stop I can see us having a similar strange immediate love affair I previously shared with Cyberbob. --

   Remember, Iscariot is DDR approved for use in both the home and at work and is safe for your children to use! Do not operate heavy machinery while under the influence of Iscariot -- . . <== DDR Approved Editor 12:20, 1 April 2010 (BST)

   For external use only. If Iscariot comes in contact with eyes wash immediately and seek medical advice. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 13:56, 1 April 2010 (BST)

Misanthropy

1. Since his promotion, Misanthropy has been one of the only constants on the admin team. Boxy is usually always around to help but since his uncharacteristic absence Mis's presence has been greatly valued by me. I like the stuff Ross has been doing, but as a crat I had to be present on UDWiki even when I didn't really want to, I would probably trust Mis a bit more to stick around. --

2. Since I've known Mis, since late '06, he's always been helpful and trustworthy. And the UDwiki seems to be his second home, so I feel he'll be the best choice for Bureaucrat Lord Gothika 15:34, 1 April 2010 (BST)

1. As he seems to be back, I say "Promote the cunt", but if he pulls out I'll vote for someone else. --Rosslessness^{Want a Location Image?} 09:30, 1 April 2010 (BST)
2. The only sysop who is not a faggot. Also, Misanthropy is a racist and hates nonwhites. --Sonny Corleone ^{DORIS I jizzed in my pants pr0n} 12:35, 1 April 2010 (BST)
