Election procedures and Arbitration Committee Clerks
[edit]Per:"ArbCom clerks will monitor the election for decorum and proper process" from the applicable policy, the Arbitration Committee clerks will be responsible for maintaining decorum and overseeing the boring parts of the election. Some of the clerks are up for elections, and have recused themselves from that duty, or may recuse for other reasons.
Some clarification up front:
Voter eligibility
- "Any unbanned editor who has made at least 150 mainspace edits by the first day of the calendar month before the election may vote." In this case, Anyone who has 150 mainspace edits by January 1 2009, 0:00 UTC and is not an arbitrators, or who has been an arbitrator in the past 12 months, is eligible to vote. Ineligible votes will be indented. Votes by confirmed sockpuppets will be struck and/or removed.
Decorum
- Emotions often to run hot during an election. Thats ok, but it is expected you will do your best to maintain a civil tone while participating in the election. In addition, please keep your comments, questions, and votes brief as a courtesy to your fellow voters. If your complaint cannot be said briefly, it is probably serious enough to warrant an e-mail to Arbcom-L
Comments
- Editors in good standing, including those ineligible to vote, are given free reign to make brief comments in the appropriate section or with their votes. Comments from banned and sockpuppet editors will be removed.
Recused clerks
- These clerks are not available to clerk the election.
