[WikiEN-l] Quickpolls - solving the edit war problem

[Erik Moeller]

Please look at

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Quickpolls

It is a proposed polling system for backing up sysop and developer  
decisions in cases like 24 hour bans or emergency desysoppings. Not a  
voting system per se but more a way to confirm that the community is  
behind a certain action before it is taken. 80% approval is needed for any  
quickpoll.

There's a poll on the talk page (of course!) on whether we want to use  
this scheme, and what could be done to improve it.

In light of this, please also reconsider your vote on the 24 hour policy.

Contrary to Martin's spamming policy, I'm also putting a notice on the  
talk pages of those who voted against that policy (that seems to be the  
best way to deal with votes where the options have changed).

Regards,

Erik
