Forum:Amendment to voting policies

In light of a few recent issues regarding votes on The Sims Wiki, I would like to propose the following changes to The Sims Wiki:Policy/Participation Policies.


 * 1) Rename the page to The Sims Wiki:Voting policy for sake of clarity.
 * 2) Eliminate the standard voting format listed in the policy.
 * 3) Remove the administrators/bureaucrats-only limitation on initiating votes.
 * 4) Eliminate the strict two-week duration on wiki votes, replacing it with a five day minimum vote duration.
 * 5) Prohibit the use of the Poll feature in official voting.
 * 6) Clarify and organize the page.

I've written up some draft language for the policy with amendments included, as well as some polishing and reorganization of the policy itself. You can see the draft version here.
