Wikipedia talk:Quick and dirty Checkuser policy

Maybe this page should be merged on to the bottom of the RFA page like the request for bureaucratship is? That way it would be more visable as well, just a thought. Martin 22:57, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a very good idea to me, how do others feel? --fvw * 22:58, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Concur. I'll move it now. R adiant _>|< 23:19, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Just noting that 55 votes have been cast now, and there's barely 80% support of the policy. Three hours left on the vote, and we got a result. Titoxd^(?!?) 20:27, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad to see this passed. I should point out that generally, the minimum support for a policy proposal is 70%, so 80.4% clears that with a wide margin. I believe that some of the people who opposed it thought that this proposal was to give checkuser rights to all admins. That is not the case - the intent is to allow users to enter a Requests For Checkuser process, which is similar to a Request For Adminship or Request For Bureaucratship.
I propose that nominations be added to a new section on the WP:RFA page. I also propose that someone suitable be nominated by tomorrow, because that is ultimately the only way to see how it will work out. R adiant _>|< 22:32, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]
