===Stage 2 - Discussion===
* A period of discussion shall last at least fiveseven days.
* After the fiveseven day period of discussion has elapsed, it shall be determined whether a consensus in favor of or against promotion has been reached.
**''Consensus'' for these requests is defined as a general agreement among users engaged in the discussion (including the nominating user, if applicable). If necessary, consensus can be roughly measured as a general agreement between at least two-thirds of users engaged in the discussion (including the nominating user, if applicable).
* If the discussion shows consensus for a nominee, the nomination is successful and the user is promoted. If the discussion shows consensus against a promotion, the nomination will end and the nominee will not be promoted.
* After the initial fiveseven-day discussion period, if consensus either for or against promotion is not present, discussion will continue until there is a two-day long period, or longer, in which nothing is added to the discussion.
**If this occurs and a consensus for promotion exists, the nomination is successful and the user is promoted.
**If this occurs and a consensus for promotion does not exist, the nomination will end and the nominee will not be promoted. ''This will occur even if a consensus against promotion does not exist.''
Line 41:
 
===Other rules===

* A nominee may end a nomination at any time. A nominee that terminates a nomination will not be eligibleineligible to be nominated or to request for fifteen days.
* A nominee who has had three failed nominations within any six-month period will be ineligible to be nominated or to request rights for three months, starting at the end of their third failed nomination.
* A nominee who applies for rights and who is ineligible will be automatically denied, and will be ineligible to request rights or to be nominated for an additional fifteen days, beginning after they would have otherwise become eligible. Nominations of ineligible nominees by other users will not result in a penalty against the nominee.

A little over two years ago, SimDestroyer was promoted to the (then-new) position of Content Moderator on the wiki. Everything that was said in my statement nominating him for that position, and everything said by the other people who voiced their support for his promotion, still stands as true as ever. SimDestroyer is a prolific editor, an effective vandalism fighter, and an active and engaged member of the community. He has utilized the Moderator tools effectively and without any history of misuse or abuse of power.
 
Promoting him to the role of Administrator, although not bringing much in the way of additional tools and powers over that of Moderator, would enable him to do his work that much more effectively. I have no doubt that he will continue to behave with the same high standards that have come to define his nearly three years of editing history on the wiki, if he is promoted. And I have no doubt that the wiki and community will be all the better for him having these additional tools at his disposal. -- '''[[User:LostInRiverview|<span style="color:navy;">LostInRiverview</span>]]<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>''' 22:00, May 26, 2020 (UTC)
 
: While I am really happy about this nomination, unfortunately I have come to the conclusion of having to '''decline''' it. I am aware of my skills as an editor and a content moderator, but the recent months of (from my point of view) decrease in activity alongside the lack of interest in the wiki (and the games) has led me to not get too hasty yet and rather wait for another time. If it ever comes. And when I first joined the wiki in 2017 and especially after gaining the content moderator role in 2018, I always had that thought of "This is the highest I am comfortable going in. I don't think admin is a role for me." While that thought ''has'' changed slightly ever since then, I am still not fully sure of accepting the rank of an administrator. But thank you for the nomination nonetheless. - [[User:SimDestroyer|SimDestroyer]] ([[User talk:SimDestroyer|talk]]) 15:57, June 1, 2020 (UTC)
