Club Penguin Wiki:Vote Page

The Wiki's Vote Page is made to hold all kinds of votes.

When a vote is held, you will be allowed to sign your username, using four Tildes  ~

Each vote will be published in this way:

== (0)==

Suggested by and confirmed by 

===For (0)===

===Against (0)===

===Comments===

Nominee Notice: After being nominated, you can enter reasons on why you should be nominated next to the "nomination sentence". A vote closes when 14 days is up. The vote difference is calculated by the number of votes "for" subtracted by the number "against". The user option with the most vote differences wins.

Voter Notice: You must vote in either "For" or "Against". If you vote in for, you have to sign underneath the "For" heading. To do this you have to type this in:

#~

After you have signed it, you must change the number in the brackets up by 1. (e.g if it was at 3, it means 3 people have already signed it. Change it to 4 when you sign it.) This is also the same with the number by their name. If you vote for, you must also increase the number beside his or her name by 1.

Please remember to use "#" instead of the usual "*", because it numbers the votes making it easier to count them.

You can also remove your vote. If in any case you change your mind, do not remove your vote completely, just strike it out and move it to the back of the list.

Please discuss with an administrator before creating a new vote!

 Please create votes under this line: 

POTM 100 Edit Limit (+7)

 * Nominated and confirmed by Shurow

This idea is to start setting a 100 mainspace edit limit on people who can be nominated for Penguin of the Month. Anyone who makes 100 mainspace edits in a month can be nominated for POTM. This should hopefully get users here to edit more and might give them a better chance to become POTM. But remember, even if you do reach the 100 mainspace edit limit, it means you CAN be nominated, it doesn't mean you will be automatically nominated. Someone will still have to nominate you. Anyways, this is becoming to detailed, so I'm going to shut up now. Kthanxbai.

 * Now before you guys lash out and vote against this idea, because you think it might HURT your chances, you need to know that 100 mainspace edits a month isn't a lot at all. It's very easy, I can do it in my sleep. If you make 10 mainspace edits everyday for 10 days, you can easily reach the limit. Keep that in mind. -- 13:37, February 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Lately, people have been nominated for being on chat a lot and barely editing, it seems if you vote against this, then you just want the easy way where you do nothing but chat and not edit.


 * It's not ALWAYS about mainspace edits... and I would have to build it up (taking about 2 weeks) so half of my month would be earning it, and then I have to wait to get nominated, and then I need to go through a vote. Too much for one award, so please just stick to the normal system. Penguin Play Awards (1).png Jjoeyxx, VIP Superstar Actor/Director And Owner Of KFP!

 * This will probably attract more of that odd "roleplaying" which gets annoying after a minute.
 * It's sometimes getting on your nerves. It's probably one of the top 3 causes for roleplaying that results fights and teasing. Also, i think Mikey is totally right. Penguin-Pal   (talk)  16:33, February 20, 2013 (UTC)
 * I totally disagree with mikey. It will be great to have a chat mascot! The chat mascot could be the one to ask if you have a question. Though if two users are logged on as the mascot at the same time, it might corrupt the system :P Anyway, we could fix that by having more than one mascot? Also, we could have a special color for the mascots, like cms have blue and admins green and bots grey and VSTF/Staff pink (isn't it?). --Party p.jpgC H U N K Y Villainous Crabs Rule!!Party p.jpg 20:34, February 22, 2013 (UTC)

 * Seeing as this was my idea, once the 14 days are up I will get the service thread running for people to discuss the RP and make characters. Rules and such will also be there. After a few days I will open the RP thread, where you RP. Gary3008 (talk) 00:56, February 4, 2013 (UTC)
 * I do not agree with this. Every time someone roleplays, it gets out of hand. I'm not pointing any names here, just saying. I hope you agree with me. Blue Crab Grandpa.jpg TLOTR, one of the edit masters. 13:32, February 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * I will be running the roleplay. There will be plenty of rules. No blog posts or anything. Anybody who breaks rules will get 3 warnings, then loss of character control for 2 days, then they will not be allowed too RP. Believe me, it won't get out of control.
 * This will open on the 17th!

 * Sure because many people like to roleplay

Deleting Unneeded Articles (+7)
Suggested by Cp kid and confirmed by Hey.youcp

CK (Cp kid) has suggested that we delete these articles: Please vote and leave a comment with your opinion. Also, any other suggestions for articles that need to be deleted would be fine.
 * Dugglus- Not a major enough role for an article.
 * Orange Penguin- Doesn't need explaining...
 * Community Penguins- Unimportant, but could be merged into Homepage if so desired.
 * The Yellow Puffle and Orange Penguin- Same as Community Penguins.
 * Blue Tour Guide- Same as Community Penguins.
 * Tour Guide (Moderator)- Not a major "moderator" like Billybob. If your against deletion then merge into Moderators.
 * Ninja (Moderator)- Same as Tour Guide.
 * The Four Ninjas- Not a major enough role for an article.
 * The Aqua Penguin- Same as Four Ninjas.
 * Purple Penguin- Same as Four Ninjas.
 * Brown Games Penguin- Same as Four Ninjas.
 * Beach Penguins- Hopefully this doesn't need explaining...

 * You know what I think Cp Kid is secretly wanting this Wiki to get wrecked again, watch when all of his "suggestions" happen, he will probably go back to the new Wiki, and tell all of his friends about how he destroyed this Wiki. I DONT TRUST ANY NEW WIKI PEOPLE!
 * Maybe the Marvel related articles as well. Some of them have more to do with their actual movie character than CP itself. --FlagCanada.svg Lord Master 96  07:15, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * Kinda Pointless to name penguins after their color or what they wear. But the mods articles should remain, or at leas, as you suggested, be mergesd with Moderators. Penguin-Pal   (talk)  12:26, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I Disagree. They could kept Some Characters. they couldn't be deleted now. --~ Lyra Heartstrings 16:04, January 21, 2013 (UTC)
 * I agree, except that you should keep Tour Guide and Ninja.
 * Define unneeded articles
 * The ones like Orange Penguin and Blue Tour Guide and other characaters who doesn't even have an official name needs to be get rid of, in my opinion. However, I am not sure about don't think we should delete the moderator articles and the stage play character articles. They do have a little notability. --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 09:38, January 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * Notice to admins and patrollers! make sure to check What Links Here before deleting the page! Penguin-Pal   (talk)  15:58, January 30,
 * Eh. I'm neutral.
 * The Four Ninjas and Aqua Penguin shoudlnt be deleted because they appear in multiple short episodes, and we dont need to delete the, just because they are not characters ingame. The mod pages should not be deleted, either, but I agree with the rest. It doesnt hurt anyone if they AREN'T deleted, either.
 * User:Historicalcp, you should also delete the Save the Island! Page

Rotation Pictures (+4)
Suggested by Ocean6100 and confirmed by Dps04

This seems unnecessary to me. I do think the up and down changes should be added, but not rotations. I sometimes think that rotations are unnecessary. The special affects would stay (like what the ↑ and ↓ arrows do). What do you think? Thoughts?

 * Can you please be more specific about this idea? I don't quite understand what sort of rotation you're talking about. Penguin-Pal   (talk)  11:40, January 25, 2013 (UTC)
 * Penguin-Pal, I think he means whether we need a snapshot for every single angle of a furniture, like what we are doing here. --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 04:20, January 27, 2013 (UTC)
 * Oh, i see Penguin-Pal   (talk)  13:20, February 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * How about combing all the rotation images to one picture.
 * That sounds do-able! That might be what we'll end up doing. :)
 * But then it would result 2 different issues:
 * 1. GIF file is the only supported file for animations, which only supports 256 different colors, which means the quality is low, and it might not have the actual colors.
 * 2. readers will not be able to pause the animation. Penguin-Pal   (talk)  13:20, February 6, 2013 (UTC)
 * Penguin-Pal I mean like combing all the views of an object like this photo.


 * Batreeqah Cool!
 * There is no reason why anyone should oppose

About Vote Confirmation (+5)
Suggested and confirmed by Dps04

Everyone knows to nominate for a vote in like POTM, Featured Article, Featured Image and so on, you need an admin to confirm the nomination. Well, in my opinion, this is getting pretty annoying to users who wanted their suggestions confirmed, but there happened to be no admin on chat or online. So my suggestion is, why not allow rollbacks and patrollers to confirm as well? Along with admins, they are trusted users.

Comments

 * I am so for this. I nominated someone for POTM, and no one has confirmed it. I wanted someone demoted, and no one has confirmed it. So, yes, I really like this idea. ~
 * For POTM, Featured Article and Image, we can allow patrollers only, but for demotion projects it requires an admin only. For the request, I don't you think you can make a demotion vote to every user you think he's not good. I think that you must be aware we have votes when majority are with it and the admins think that votes are needed. You can't alone do votes all the time to demote any user you want. --FlagBahrain.svg Sdgsgfs ( T a l k ) 15:57, February 2, 2013 (UTC)
 * Well, sdgsgfs, I think both rollbacks and patrollers deserves to be trusted. They are trusted with their additional rights, and so should they be trusted that they won't accept all demotion requests regardless of the reason behind it. I think both rollbacks and patrollers know when to accept demotion requests, and when not to :) --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 04:12, February 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * No, Dps04. Only admins SHOULD take care of Demotion Requests.
 * This isn't even about the demotion page! I strongly agree with Dps, as I am sure some rollbacks/patrollers may be maturer than some admins. -- C H U N K Y
 * Users can wait... or let the question be, "What if there are no rollbacks and patrollers around?" I vote against this. Only admins have the responsibility of |managing votes. - Mixer2301
 * I am actually capable of doing these things User:Mixer2301 and User:Sdgsgfs . Remember the admins choose users who they can trust to become patrollers. A patroller does alot of things similar to an admin and this is one of them.
 * Bsyew is right. Also, who knows? Many of our rollbacks and patrollers here may become admin in the future, so why not let them confirm votes beforehand? --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 02:20, February 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * Indeed
 * Well what about this. Since Mixer and Sdgsgfs are against patrollers and rollbacks accepting demotion requests, what about a concession: Patrollers and rollbacks can confirm POTM, Featured Article, Featured Image and votes in this page, while only admins can handle demotion requests. What do you think? --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 10:49, February 23, 2013 (UTC)

This features has proved itself as a great way for encouragning users to make more edits, but here, a wiki that has thousands of articles, and a very large community, it just doesn't work well. Penguin-Pal  (talk)  13:34, February 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * What is that suppose to be? Penguin-Pal   (talk)  19:05, February 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * Do you mean Achievements? -- 23:21, February 9, 2013 (UTC)
 * I think we should, it would be like Stamps only for the wiki! It could be interesting ~
 * We tried it in December 2011, until early 2012. It worked great, beside users added hundreds of images and then reverted their edits for earning awards. the wiki activity's average loading time had usually taken between 30 seconds to a few minutes. Also, users added tons of pointless categories, which doesn't ma navigation easier at all.
 * Normally on other Wikis with this feature everyone seems to "challenge" each others to be ranked #1. This feature enable will probably cause a ton of arguments, fights, and pointless edits.
 * I think we should try it out, and if it goes out of hand, then we can just discontinue them. Com'on, it can't hurt to try. It may be different this time.
 * If we do this then they're will be a lot of cheating and arguments just like Pj Monster 1 said . --Arsenal55702 (talk) 17:37, February 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have to give a big fat NO. We had achievements in the past and users such as User:Penguinstorm300 cheated to earn achievements. Honestly I think the wiki is better off without them. -- 03:54, February 19, 2013 (UTC)
 * I so don't like this idea. The badges can easily be hacked, and they don't really show "Achievements" because they are easy to get and - like I said - easy to hack. -- C H U N K Y
 * We had badges before I even had an account but they got spammed and people cheated with them
