The following voting has ended. If you disagree or want to re-open for another vote, please contact an administrator to do so. Please do not modify it.
Our wiki grows larger every day, and a product of this growth is that people are responding quicker to votes, making them end quicker. This has been useful in getting things along so we can continue in the next phase of the wiki Plan (tm), but it has also meant a few users haven't had that much of an opportunity to get their say into a vote.
I propose that in addition to needing 12 votes and a 3 vote differential, we should also have a time minimum to give people an opportunity to get their word in. This can in turn be used as a general guideline for those of us who close these votes.
Power Set Votes
Power votes should last at minimum 24 hours, so they can get passe quickly but ALSO allow an opportunity for users of all time zones to chime in, especially if the set is contentious.
Expansion/R&D Activity Votes
These types of votes would be things like The fate of Champions of Othrys (an old vote we had)/or Roman Inclusion (old vote we had) which are specific to the activity and expansions on wiki planned by R&D/Admin team. Contests would also fall under this category. These types of votes should at minimum last a week because these are the type of votes we want as much input into as we can. R&D can amend this time frame if need be for specific contests, but as a general, the votes should last a week minimum.
Policy Votes
These are votes that are about broader wikia policy, meaning claiming policy, image policy, chat policy, etc. Some policy can be passed rather quickly without contention, while other policy requires a longer time frame. In order to give it some flexibility, we should have policy votes at least last two days before closing them, however, it can be noted on policies with extreme consequences that, for that specific policy, it will remain open at minimum for a longer time frame. (ex. so and so vote will remain open at least two weeks)
Misc Votes
Misc votes that don't fall into any of these categories should stay up for at least 24 hours.
I'm leaving demotion votes out of the time frame because they generally wouldn't need a minimum given our team is small, and also because this is a general Level 5 and up vote.
