Based on concerns raised on this list, the elections committee is changing the requirement from "at least 50 edits between April 1, 2008 and June 1, 2008" to "at least 50 edits between January 1, 2008 and June 1, 2008". We hope this will avoid disenfranchising active community members, while ensuring that longtime-inactive users cannot vote on this important current issue.
The relevant election pages will be updated within the next several hours.
Thank you for your considered feedback and input into this very important decision.
Just as a matter of clarity. Can the 50 edits be spread across different projects? Do internal wikis count?
I'm just afraid I'm not gonna have the required number of edits on any one wiki. And I consider myself kind of "up to date" to be allowed to vote.
(unofficial comment) In previous years, the election committee/medium has allowed voting from external wikis. I would be surprised if they didn't this year.
