There's some disagreement on who should be allowed to initiate votes. Speaking personally, I feel we should allow all users who are eligible to vote to also start votes. But we should also allow administrators the right to modify or cancel votes that are wholly unnecessary, unfair, badly-written, or that violate policy. In other words, administrators would serve as the enforcers, to make sure that any votes that are started are legitimate. I am personally not a fan of allowing vote creation by rollbackers but not regular users, as we have many capable users on the wiki who are not rollbackers. What does everyone else think? -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<font color="navy">LostInRiverview</font>]]<sup> [[User_talk:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">talk</font>]] • [[User_blog:LostInRiverview|<font color="green">blog</font>]] • [[Special:Contributions/LostInRiverview|<font color="green">contribs</font>]]</sup>''' 05:00, December 5, 2014 (UTC)
 
:Yes, the administrators should serve as the enforcers and be given the right to modify or cancel votes that are unnecessary, unfair, etc.
:Yes, we should allow users that aren't rollbackers to start votes, since there are many capable users out there that aren't rollbackers. My thoughts were probably just there to support the allowances of more experienced non administrators to vote - but then we get new users that are already experienced from other wikis. I for one don't have rollback rights outside this wiki, but that doesn’t automatically make me less experienced, and more importantly it doesn’t make others less experienced as well.
:So yes, all auto-confirmed users should be allowed to start votes. -- '''[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="maroon">C.Syde</font>]]''' ([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="black">talk</font>]] &#124; [[:Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="black">contribs</font>]]) 05:38, December 5, 2014 (UTC)
