UDWiki:Poll

This wiki attempts to be a community project - every user's opinion matters - so, this is the place for polls that concern the community. A poll is a survey (a measuring tool) which determines the current state of a situation, with respect to consensus. It doesn't form consensus. It merely measures it.

How to start a poll

To start a poll, you must follow the following steps:

  1. Create a page for that poll.
    This is meant so this page doesn't get lengthy and unreadable. Create this page as a subpage of the UDWiki:Poll page, like UDWiki:Poll/Your Poll.
  2. Write a draft about your poll.
    This draft is not the final text for your poll, it is the general idea of what you want to vote for.
  3. Link this page here.
    In the Under Discussion header. Write a few words about what you want to discuss in this poll. Also, add your poll to the tally of polls undergoing discussion at {{Wiki News}}.
  4. Discuss it on the talk page.
    The poll's talk page. People will be able to elaborate on the written draft, and add their opinions of what should be changed so this draft gets approved by the community. Any poll should remain at least 3 days under discussion before it goes for voting. Any discussion which doesn't go to voting in 2 weeks will be archived.
  5. Write the final text on your poll.
    Write the final text for your poll based on what was discussed on the poll's talk page.
  6. Start the poll.
    The poll must then be moved to the Active Polls header here. Opinions should be added as headers to the poll page. Users are encouraged to show their opinions by saying if they Agree to, or Oppose these points, and any discussion MUST go to that poll's talk page.
  7. Poll closed!
    Poll closes after a week. Polls that pass are then archived, and should be announced on the Wiki News box on the main page.
