Template:Proposal check
Use this template to check whether a proposal has reached consensus or not. Here are the parameters, in order:
- The number of votes that the first place option has
- The number of votes that the second place option has
- The number of unique users who voted in the proposal
- This parameter is optional for two-option proposals
- A tool such as DeDupeList may help with this
Add an early=yes parameter to instead check whether a proposal is eligible for an early close or not. See below for examples.
Two-option proposal
- Support: Greg, Samantha, Tim
- Oppose: Matthew, Emily, Luke, James, Olivia, Barry
- Notes
- "Oppose" is the first place option and "Support" is the second place option.
- Since this is a two-option proposal, the third parameter can be omitted.
Early close check
{{proposal check|early=yes|6|3}}
With a margin of 3 votes, the proposal is not eligible to close one week early. DO NOT CLOSE EARLY
The vote margin is not sufficient, so the proposal does not close early.
Deadline check
{{proposal check|6|3}}
With a margin of 3 votes, over 50% approval is required. 66.7% approve the first place option. CONSENSUS REACHED
Consensus is reached, so the proposal is settled and has failed.
Multi-option proposal
- Option 1: Steve, Mary, Bob, Charlie
- Option 2: Steve, Greg, Susan
- Option 3: Fred, Greg, Sarah, Lucy, Tyler
- Option 4: Greg, Sarah, Tyler, Jim
- Notes
- "Option 3" is the first place option. Options 1 and 4 are tied for second place.
- It doesn't matter if second place is tied; the number is still 4 votes.
- While the proposal has 16 total votes placed, it only has 11 unique users.
Early close check
{{proposal check|early=yes|5|4|11}}
With a margin of 1 vote, the proposal is not eligible to close one week early. DO NOT CLOSE EARLY
The vote margin is not sufficient, so the proposal does not close early.
Deadline check
{{proposal check|5|4|11}}
With a margin of 1 vote, at least 60% approval is required. 45.5% approve the first place option. CONSENSUS NOT REACHED
Consensus is not reached, so the proposal is extended (up to three times).
