Re: Arbcom Elections 2021

At least, there are sufficient candidates now that people actually have a choice and maybe there will be some more as the deadline approaches. I really feared I would have to run again just to have more viable candidates than seats to fill :XD So Why not run anyway? Because ArbCom is a hell of a ti...

Re: WP Sado-Masochism Festival — It's 2019 Arbcom Election Time!

I wonder if the new arbs will be privy to the secret evidence and if they would endorse the decision of the previous ArbCom. Fram (or someone) might at least want to ask that. Or see if it is possible to ask that. Of course, you wouldn't want to do this every year, but maybe doing that this year (w...

Re: WP Sado-Masochism Festival — It's 2019 Arbcom Election Time!

Interesting thought. I'm intrigued by the reasoning. I could see it easily if each voter were limited in the number of support votes, but there's nothing to stop them from voting for all the candidates. Or is it just observation from historical ACEs? There's a lot of discussion over voting methods,...

Re: WP Sado-Masochism Festival — It's 2019 Arbcom Election Time!

I wonder what would happen if there were a revamp of the voting page, which included ranked choice for those candidates for whom voters voted. (It could be a high-tech drag-n-drop clearly labeled "Vote Order Matters!", or an endless series of low-tech drop-down boxes...) I proposed a ranked-vote fo...

Impressed to see SoWhy rank so high. I'd choose to use the word "surprised" here. I for one did not expect that. None of the people are terrible, so we can wish them well, doing a horrible job on a bizarre website run by the horrible WMF. After another Arbcom humiliation, Kudpung can still amuse us...
