Introduction
Thanks to @Deagonx, I realized that I forgot to include an important rule in the discussion rules page regarding staff discussions.
While the existing rules are acceptable, I would like to propose an additional rule that aims to prevent any misunderstandings within the community, particularly among the staff members.
Each staff member's input will be valued and given appropriate weight, depending on the subject matter of the discussion thread. For instance, if a staff thread pertains to calculations, the staff member specialized in calculations will have more influence compared to a thread moderator, as their expertise lies in that specific area. If the staff thread is solely for content revision, exceptions can be considered, as the only distinction between the two threads is the presence of strict moderation. In such cases, the rules applicable to the content revision guidelines will be followed for that thread.
Draft
If you have any additional suggestions or if you identify any flaws in the draft, it can still be modified or altered accordingly.Every staff member's input will be taken into consideration, with the level of influence determined by their expertise in the specific field of the thread. This ensures that staff members who have relevant knowledge and expertise in a particular subject are given more weight in the decision-making process, aligning the contributions with their areas of specialization.
- In wiki policy revision threads, bureaucrats have both voting and veto rights. Administrators also have voting rights, and all staff members are welcome to comment in these threads, regardless of whether they have evaluation rights or not
- For changes that have a significant impact on the entire wiki, additional safeguards are in place. Only the most trusted and experienced staff members will evaluate the proposed courses of action. Please note that this version incorporates the Ancient Rome-style universal veto, which allows any single staff member (Bureaucrat) with veto power to block a proposed decision, even if it has the support of the majority.
- In the case of wiki policies concerning calculation instruction pages, calculation group members also have voting power, in addition to the voting and veto rights of bureaucrats and administrators.
For visitors
- Regular members may not comment on staff discussion threads marked as “Restricted solely for staff members” under any circumstances, as such discussions cover sensitive wiki policy issues and other similar crucial matters that require great caution.
Restricted solely for staff members;
Ideally, input from staff members across various fields is preferred;
