OhoJeeOnFire

Hello. I am OhoJeeOnFire and I am running for Chairperson. I know I don’t have pretty good qualities, but I am willing to help everyone and make sure our community is a better place. I know that I qualify for this important role because I care for others, I love to help my community, and I use my common sense and my knowledge to make good decisions. If you want a good Chairperson, vote for me, OhoJeeOnFire. I would also like to introduce my Vice-Chairperson, MightyMario. He qualifies for Vice-Chairperson because he is very kind, he allows everyone to speak their ideas, and he is a very good friend and person overall.

My Goals:

• Prevent vandalism anywhere in my community.
• Censor foul language on the boards for young people.
• Make sure nobody is left out.
• Fulfill my responsibilities for Chairperson.

Placeholder comment. All wiki editors may comment on the process here.

Out of curiosity what would happen if no users were to run even though that's extremely unlikely?

Too late. It’s impossible now. But I think it will be postponed. OhoJeeOnFire (talk)

@OhoJeeOnFire: Wiki maintenance isn't related to the duties of the Poll Committee, in fact it's not at all uncommon for Poll Committee members (even the Chairperson) to rarely edit the wiki at all, and censorship of wiki content is not allowed. I'm not sure what you mean by making sure nobody is left out - do you mean making the committee as inclusive as possible, or trying to cover all possible options in polls, or something else? What sorts of plans do you have for the Poll Committee besides fulfilling the regular duties, if any? Do you plan on having a Vice-Chairperson? Overall, I'd like some elaboration on what we can expect from your campaign. -- Too Bad! Waluigi Time! 13:17, June 27, 2022 (EDT)

According to your recommendation for elaboration, the committee is going to be as inclusive as possible. I’m planning on having MightyMario (talk) as my Vice-Chairperson. When I talk about censorship, it’s mainly about the boards. I also plan on allowing other users to submit their own polls so that everyone has a voice in the community. I hope you understand. I’ll keep elaborating if you have any more questions. OhoJeeOnFire (talk)

Forum moderation isn't part of the Poll Committee's duties either, especially not making changes to the rules. I'm not sure if you were aware, but the Poll Committee already has a form for external submissions that they periodically look at for poll ideas. If one of your goals is to emphasize letting anyone submit polls, do you plan on having a full committee, or is it just going to be you and MightyMario? -- Too Bad!

As the forum moderation's representative, I can confirm we have no plans to implement a censorship policy, and that the Poll Committee has no jurisdiction over that decision. Superchao (talk)
