Personally, I feel like a minimum of 5 days and a maximum of 14 days is a good benchmark. I also feel that votes should be ended early if there is clear consensus for a particular option, but I don't know what sort of minimum time, if any, should be set before doing this. I think it would best be left to the discretion of admins. -- '''[[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)
:I don't think I've ever seen a vote need to go for longer than 5 days barring exceptional circumstances. I believe it might be a good idea to use the same rules we use for RfA's, as shown [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/The_Sims_Wiki:Requests_for_administratorship#Stage_2_-_Discussion here]. There are a few benefits to this, namely it provides a decent time limit of 5 days with the potential for it to be extended in the case of a controversial issue. In addition, I like the idea of using this system as it would standardize voting across the wiki, as rights requests and other votes are the only two types of votes I can think of from memory. By standardizing the lengths of the two it would reduce confusion and also provide a sense of unity for lack of a better term. {{WHsig|03:42, December 28, 2014 (UTC)}}
