Board Thread:Voting For New Rules/@comment-24808864-20140615164238/@comment-24808864-20140616153827

OK, we are still missing opinions from Aaron (and possibly Hkapur but I hope he is enjoying a honeymoon). Also we have a new user Yisrael but he is probably not quite aware of the voting process yet.

I am not neutral, I actually think everyone should do what they want, and let the admins take care of organization or deleting things. I have to admit, I am smiling right now. I am so proud of everyone in our community that participated politely. There are no fights above, only discussion. I love this feeling! But it looks like so far my side is losing this proposal.

Our totals so far look like:

In favor: HMcCoy and Anthony (2)

Opposed: Tibet, Alex, Pranav (3)

And Cdragon has a proposal that meets a middle ground between allowing and not allowing (which I think was a great idea)!

I am semi-convinced by Alex's argument though too. A facebook wiki with EVERYONE would be silly. Pranav is right, not everyone is famous.

'''So, I would propose we say that the general policy is you are NOT allowed to just make a user page for yourself on the wiki. As Tibet says, you should use your MESSAGE WALL and PROFILE to share information about yourself. Wiki pages for KA users should have some exceptional fact such as:'''

1) Has Tesla: So Raymond Greenwood and others stay.

2) Have lots of followers/supporters: So Anthony Jacquez should stay.

3) Is a leader of important groups: So Noble Mushtak should stay.

4) Is a leader of the wiki?: So Cdragon should stay?

If a new wiki user thinks they have something about themselves that is important and exceptional, and they think they deserve their own special page, they should propose this to an admin and the admin can make a decision or bring it to the community. <-(Cdragon's idea)

Does this sound like a good summary?
