::This was somewhat decided (unofficially) on my [[The Sims Wiki:Requests for bureaucratship/K6ka (February 2015)|RfB]], with: <span style="color:rgb(0,133,96);font-family:Georgia,'DejaVuSerif',serif;line-height:22.399999618530273px;">the user that requested this nomination has been blocked from editing The Sims Wiki. Therefore, I am inclined to say that this nomination is null-and-void</span>. --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>]] 13:47, May 26, 2015 (UTC)
:::I believe that the nominations/votes of indefinitely blocked users should not be discarded, as they are technically not bad-faith edits. Even if the nominator/voter is permanently blocked from the wiki, their nomination/vote should remain because the nominee is another user who probably has not been blocked and so legitimately deserves to become featured editor if the community at large agrees. Unless, of course, the blocked nominator has nominated themselves or the nominee also happens to be blocked, in which case the nomination should be removed. ―'''[[User:WikiBuilder1147|<font color="green">The</font>]] [[User_talk:WikiBuilder1147|<font color="blue">Tim</font>]] [[User blog:WikiBuilder1147|<font color="lime">Man</font>]]''' <sup>([[w:c:historyfiction:User:WikiBuilder1147|Infinite Histories]] • [[w:c:galactic-crucibles:User:WikiBuilder1147|Galactic Crucibles]] • [[w:c:sims:User:WikiBuilder1147|The Sims Wiki]] • [[w:c:althistory:User:WikiBuilder1147|AltHistory]] • '''[[Special:Contributions/WikiBuilder1147|<font color="#006400">Contribs</font>]])'''</sup> 13:48, May 26, 2015 (UTC)
::::I feel like Tim has a good point. A nominee can't (or at least shouldn't) win based only on the nomination or vote of a blocked member; a nomination needs support from others to win. Taken along with the way that K6ka's bureaucrat nomination was handled, I think that maybe the best solution is to disregard an indefinitely blocked user's nomination, but keep the nomination as valid if another user is willing to "adopt" the nomination as their own. I don't know if that RfB sets an actual precedent or not, so I think the matter is still undecided. But I do agree with Tim's sentiment regarding keeping good-faith actions. - '''[[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>''' 14:27, May 26, 2015 (UTC)
