Changes: Club Penguin Wiki:Vote Page

Revision as of 04:37, 1 December 2015

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:

==<Vote name> (0)==
:Suggested by <your name> and confirmed by <administrator name>
===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:

Change the Voting system (-1)

Suggested by AustinD-3 and confirmed by Callum Fawsitt

For (0)

Against (1)

Can you please offer a more detailed explanation? --Hey.youcp 09:30, November 27, 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, further clarification is needed. There seems to be no differences between the proposed voting system and the one we currently have. (All proposals now must have amassed more support votes than against votes for them to pass, and therefore over 50% of all votes cast) --Dps04^talk 11:45, November 27, 2015 (UTC)

The proposed changes seem to go against what we, as a wiki, use them for. In most scenarios (say voting for politics) the way to win the vote is to get the majority. That is, to say, over 50%. If we wanted to change our current "percentage-to-victory" to 75% from 50% (per Dps04 above), it would still be above the 50% margin; but it would make votes a lot harder to complete and to gain a greater public opinion. I simply don't see the point. --Memmon^(talk) 09:45, November 28, 2015 (UTC)
Any particular reason for doing so? --Dps04^talk 04:37, December 1, 2015 (UTC)
