[WikiEN-l] Requests for rollback privilege; someone has put their name forwards

[Chris Jenkinson]

Hi all,

This is just to let people know that Aranda56 has submitted their name 
to be granted the rollback privilege on the requests for rollback 
privileges[1] page (currently a proposed policy).

What would happen in the event that the nomination is successful? There 
is also the possibility that the nomination will be unsuccessful, for 
three reasons:

  - People do not believe putting people through a proposed policy is a 
good idea;

  - That they think the candidate is unsuitable for rollback;

  - They do not believe the proposed policy is a good idea and they are 
proxy voting on the issue of Aranda56's candidacy as a way to show their 
opposition to the policy.

In the third case, I believe it would be best to leave the proposed 
policy page open in case community consensus later forms to make this 
proposed policy into practice. However, the first and second 
possibilities leave us with a quandry as it would be difficult to know 
whether people believe the policy should be in place or not.

What do people suggest in the way of resolving the potential scenarios 
from this?

Chris
