This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Gentgeen (talk | contribs) at 04:40, 24 September 2004 (→'''Section I: Early Deletion: No.'''). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This page serves as the ballot box for the proposed Early Deletion proposal. There are two possibilities at this point. Section I is the proposal. Section II is the proposal with the alternative mechanism.

I ask kindly and politely that we not argue with one another in the voting space. If you have comments or advocacy regarding votes, please use the talk page. If you have comments or advocacy about the proposal itself, please use the talk page to the proposal.

Voting opens on Friday, September 24, 2004 and concludes on October 8, 2004. Voting may be extended, if needed.

Quorum: This policy will be deemed to have failed if it does not gain 20 "pro" votes, regardless of proportion of pro to con votes.

Section I: The Early Deletion Proposal Yes.

Section I: Early Deletion: No.

  1. Netoholic @ 01:10, 2004 Sep 24 (UTC) -- Any process which makes the decision-making process only available to sysops goes clearly against the maxim that "Sysops are not imbued with any special authority, and are equal to everybody else in terms of editorial responsibility." A sysop is only there to perform the technical function of deletion, as directed by consensus among all editors.
  2. Sysop-only voting is bad. I'd prefer to widen the speedy deletion process. Snowspinner 02:00, Sep 24, 2004 (UTC)
  3. I'd rather not give admins special authority, however I wouldn't mind seeing a couple more reasons for speedy deletion (blatant adverts, for example). As a counter-proposal, how about making quick-delete an option for VfD? A page that got a certain number of votes (let's say... 10) for quick-delete and none to keep could be deleted within a few hours. A mixture of deletes and quick-deletes would get it deleted in two or three days instead of the usual five. -- Zwilson 04:03, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  5. This is more nonsense policy; rubbish is effectively zapped by admins atm; stuff which requires consideration goes to vfd. This will only add more complexity to an already bloated gut of policy. Sjc 04:09, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Section II: Early Deletion with the certified Jury Pool aternative mechanism
