==Deletion Policy== |

I was thinking about making an official voting procedure limiting people who can vote. I don't think I liked how the CAS Sims vote was ran. Here are my proposals: |

There is no deletion policy in effect however I have been asked in the past, what is the policy here? I, liking my freedom to delete anything when I want anytime, do not want a deletion policy. However I'm asking the community should we have one or not? We will not vote on this topic unless someone wishes to put forth a possible deletion policy. I'm willing to consider any items put forth seriously and will do what the community wants! No fear! RAWR! ^^ [[User:Makiah|<font color="red">Makiah</font>]] [[User talk:Makiah|<small><font color="red">(talk)</font></small>]] 22:53, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |

*To have Voting Requirements: |
|||
:# Must be a Member (Anonymous or IP Votes will not be counted) |
|||
:# Must have atleast 1 edit in the sims wiki |
|||
:# Votes must be signed correctly with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> |
|||
:# Banned user's votes will not be counted. |
|||
:Well, then, I suggest something simple like having a page to put articles up for deletion in. The point of it is to give non-admin contributors the ability to at least suggest that a page be deleted. On the other hand, deletions probably won't come up very often, so whatever works, you know? --[[User:Narc|Narc]] ([[User talk:Narc|talk]]) 13:12, 19 March 2008 (UTC) |

*To have a voting format to make achived voting topics more comprehensible. Something like |

::We could have a simple page linked to in the Discussions maybe? Discussions/Delete Page and people can request pages to be deleted for a reason and also have a link the the deletion log and if any admin deletes a page they want, people can vote for it to be recreated by the admin. (I don't know if a non-admin can restore a page with all the previous edits...but admins can) How does that sound? Do we need to vote on this?

:::That's pretty exactly what I was thinking about, honestly. I don't think we need a vote -- this is admin privilege, honestly, so whatever you say is how we'll go.

These ideas were mainly based on [http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Site_Name StarWars Fanon's] archived vote, as well as their voting restrictions. |

I know this is a small community also so I think I would like to limit voting time periods but do not know what that time period should be. Comments? [[User:Makiah|Makiah]] 23:11, 12 February 2008 (UTC) |

:Alright, my idea is that the time limit for voting will be 2 weeks, however if anyone would like to put in their input that would be great. On March 12th if no one has any input I think we will adopt the above as our voting format and voting rules. That way we will be able to use that to vote on the Policy and Main Page.

::Looks very decent to me. I was wondering if we could have each vote have its own page, linked from a main "Current and Archived Votes" page; that way we can watch the current votes page for changes while not cluttering it up with old votes. Just a thought. --[[User:Narc|Narc]] ([[User talk:Narc|talk]]) 18:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:::I was thinkings about that but I still have to look into how to do it. Like archived talk pages. I figure this would be the best place to hold the discussions then we could move it to another page and lock it indefinately as archived in an archived category that way it's viewable and people could read it but not change it. Then on the Article part of this page list the past discussions and their result with links to the archive. If it's the way I think it would be then a sample discussion/vote archive for example would be like [[Discussions/Main Page]] then in the article part would have a copy of the discussions then under that the votes. The article part would be locked and the Discussion part would be for any comments on those discussions. This page would be a central locations for all discussions and voting. Sound good? ~ [[User:Makiah|Makiah]] 19:14, 11 March 2008 (UTC) |

::::That sounds like what I was thinking about, honestly. --[[User:Narc|Narc]] ([[User talk:Narc|talk]]) 18:19, 13 March 2008 (UTC) |

Alright guys, you can check out the policy here: [[Sims wiki:Policy]]. I'm still willing to discuss the idea above. But whats in the policy is what we agree upon so that's why I kept it off for now. [[User:Makiah|Makiah]] 21:06, 11 March 2008 (UTC) |

:I added the 2 week time period because no one contested the view and I didn't remember at the time when I was writing it that it was there. I haven't added the idea above about voting on other pages because while I agree with the idea I'm not sure how to do it or if what I mentioned above would be the best way to do it. If the way above is the correct way and no one opposes I'll write that into the Voting Procedures, that way it's set in stone and people have a format to follow. I think this should be priority over the other things mentioned on this page because we can use this to vote on the other things. ~ [[User:Makiah|Makiah]] 00:12, 13 March 2008 (UTC) |

::I can't think of anything to add. I think it's probably more important right now to have a voting policy in place than to tweak its specifics -- we can always do that later. --[[User:Narc|Narc]] ([[User talk:Narc|talk]]) 18:19, 13 March 2008 (UTC) |

This page is an archived discussion. To discuss it currently please use the talk page.
Deletion Policy
There is no deletion policy in effect however I have been asked in the past, what is the policy here? I, liking my freedom to delete anything when I want anytime, do not want a deletion policy. However I'm asking the community should we have one or not? We will not vote on this topic unless someone wishes to put forth a possible deletion policy. I'm willing to consider any items put forth seriously and will do what the community wants! No fear! RAWR! ^^ Makiah (talk) 22:53, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
- Well, then, I suggest something simple like having a page to put articles up for deletion in. The point of it is to give non-admin contributors the ability to at least suggest that a page be deleted. On the other hand, deletions probably won't come up very often, so whatever works, you know? --Narc (talk) 13:12, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
- We could have a simple page linked to in the Discussions maybe? Discussions/Delete Page and people can request pages to be deleted for a reason and also have a link the the deletion log and if any admin deletes a page they want, people can vote for it to be recreated by the admin. (I don't know if a non-admin can restore a page with all the previous edits...but admins can) How does that sound? Do we need to vote on this? Makiah (talk) 03:59, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
