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

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!

Politics (+11)

 * Suggested by Wolf-gangs

The wiki strictly does not allow users to talk about politics and the punishment is 1 month. I guess the punishment is quite strict and politics is something many users like talking about. I think we should allow politics as long it does not go beyond a user limit.

 * Wait so I get blocked for saying "blame the government"? =[ 10:45, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * No political talking? Seems like there've been some political interests behind the decision to launch this rule. Penguin-Pal   (talk)  11:00, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Actually, where does it say in the policy that politics is not allowed? --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 11:09, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * It's currently in the Userpage Policy. -- 23:44, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks :P --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 05:22, August 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks for bringing this up. I understand the rule was probably added to prevent fights, but there is a Fights Policy for that. -- 23:44, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * The policy currently forbids users from adding any political-related materials on their user page, which is a blatant violation of the International Covenant on civil and political rights. Thus, it must be removed. --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 05:25, August 9, 2014 (UTC)

Include a "grant trial" option in promotion votes (+10)

 * Suggested and confirmed by Dps04

Currently, there are only 2 available options in rollback/patroller promotion votes: For and against. By voting "for", it means that a user supports the nominee to be promoted permanently, while an "against" vote means that he or she does not support the nominee to be promoted at all. I believe there should be an additional third option for users to vote for in such promotion votes: "Grant a trial / Temporary Promotion". By voting for this option, the user supports the nominee to be promoted for a trial period (probably 2 weeks), so other users can review the nominee's performance during this period and determine whether he or she deserves a permanent promotion or not. After the trial period, either there should be another vote or the administration should decide whether the nominee should be promoted permanently. This could hopefully provide an alternate option for users who can't decide whether they should vote "for" or "against" the nominee's promotion. Any thoughts?

Comments

 * Sorry about this. I'm voting against because this policy implies that rollbacks will continue to be promoted by community vote, while I prefer for the administration simply to decide. It's a great idea, but it doesn't really gel with my preferences. Again, sorry. -- THE RULER AND DICTATOR OF AWESOME HAS RETURNED!!!!!  TALK TO HIM, OR ELSE! 17:43, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * You have a great idea up there. Why not set up a new vote based on that idea of yours? Lets see what the community thinks :P --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 17:45, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * No wonder you're calling yourself a dictator in your signature. 18:13, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * What value will each vote type have, and if it passes, how would we determine whether a given user should be given X rights, trial X rights, or no rights at all? Penguin-Pal   (talk)  17:56, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * The answer is simple: 42. 19:46, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I suppose we would go with whichever vote type got the most votes. -- 23:44, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Hey.youcp is right. If this vote gets passed, "grant trial" votes will not be counted towards the total value. Whichever option (for/against/grant trial) gets the most number of votes will win. --Rowboat Pin.PNGtalk 05:06, August 9, 2014 (UTC)
 * I don't see this change making much of a difference, but it's better than an "I don't know" option. We can try it out. -- 23:44, August 8, 2014 (UTC)

Removing Community Vote for Rollbacks (0)

 * Suggested by Awesome335 and confirmed by Roger6881

This vote is for taking away the process of a community vote to promote rollbacks, and handing such power to the administrators. This does NOT affect any other user rights categories. People may think that this is a dictatorial approach, but it's been done before! There was a period of several years where this was the status quo. Somewhere along the line, it got changed. I'm trying to change it back now, because I feel like rollback rights are not "as big a deal" as admin or patroller, and as such, they don't require a community vote. If passed, this policy will take effect AFTER the current rollback promotion vote has finished. To apply for rollback, one would use this page, and an admin would respond "yes", "no", or they could grant a trial period, as Dps04 suggested above. One final, important note: Dps's vote to include a grant trial option applies to ALL rights, not just rollbacks. So, you can still vote for trials for the other rights, and admins will still be able to grant trials to those applying for rollback. Thoughts?

Forum Section: Ask an Admin! (+1)

 * Suggested and confirmed by Roger6881

Hello Club Penguin wiki, I have an idea, a goal, an ambition to which I will share with you today: After looking through countless forum posts I noticed an area missing. What is that area you might ask? Communication. More specifically, community. I attempted to find a solution to make it seem more 'forum like'; I searched for an idea that was popular among forums. I finally found one: ask a moderator anything. Naturally I thought this was a great idea to get to know your moderators, or, to put it in wikia terms, administrators.

This feature will allow you to freely ask questions (any spam will be deleted) as long as they are in the policy, anything. Want to know what my favorite book is? What about how cake vs pie originated (it's hilarious, I have to say!) Well, now you can.

Each respective administrator will get a forum for you to post on. Like the trial version, we might expand it!
