: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)
 
::Um, that should be "all registered users with at least one edit" as LiR proposed. Autoconfirmed requires the account to be at least four days old and have made at least 10 edits. Autoconfirmed status also appears to be shared across all of Wikia, so a vandal that happened to stay on a small, unmonitored wiki made 10 edits and stayed there for four days would be able to start a vote here, which is undesirable. They should have one ''local'' edit here. Unregistered users should not be allowed to vote (as it's very easy to manipulate the votes just by changing IP addresses and using proxies and all that). --I am [[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] [[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF"><sup>Talk to me!</sup></span>]] [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F"><sub>See what I have done</sub></span>]] 12:00, December 5, 2014 (UTC)
 
:::Of course administrators should be enforcers in votes and such. However, I feel that rollbackers and registered users should not be able to start a vote. They may be capable and this is '''not''' a trust issue, I just think that role should be for those who have "authority" on the wiki.

::::{{ec}} (slight off-topic) Experience applies to more than just editing the wiki, it also applies to interactions with the community. I have over 10,000 edits on The Sims Wiki, but I have no experience editing Wikipedia. If I were to go there I would be inexperienced with their methods even if I am a rollback/admin/bureaucrat on other wikis. -- '''[[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>''' 18:08, December 5, 2014 (UTC)

::::: @ Beds - I disagree that rollbackers and registered users shouldn't be able to start votes. I have full confidence that myself and other active non-admins can be trusted to start votes. And I don't think it should be left to those who have "authority". While not all users have the same user rights, we are all wiki editors who want to help improve it. And all users are in most circumstances, equal. So I think non-admins should be given the chance.
:::::I have some level of experience editing wikipedia, but I remember when I was inexperienced. Also I don't really have anything to say on the section above this one. All vote lengths are fine with me, for now. -- '''[[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>]]) 21:21, December 5, 2014 (UTC)
