Forum:MASSIVE Council of Seers Election

This is yet another MASSIVE election, but this time it’s for High Priests due to the recent resignation of Red Head Rider. For those of you who do not know, High Priests are in charge of maintaining and voting on Good Article Nominations (note: anyone can vote on Good Article Nominations, unlike where only Decreton Lords vote on Featured Article Nominations). There is no set number of people that we will be electing. We can elect as many people as we want, because there really should be a lot of High Priests to maintain the High Priests.

In order to become a High Priest, you need to meet the following two qualifications:


 * 1) You must meet the qualifications of the Voting Policy.
 * 2) Your voting privileges cannot be restricted.
 * 3) You should already be a contributor, frequent or semi-frequent, to the Good Article Nominations page.

In order to be elected as a High Priest, you need to have at least ten net votes (meaning when support and oppose votes are combined). That number can and will be revised should it be necessary. You also need to remain on the nominations track for at least one week, regardless of how many votes you may acquire before then. Once you have received that many votes and have remained on the track for one week, you will be elected as a High Priest. Please use the following format:


 * === Username ===


 * ==== Support ====


 * ==== Neutral ====


 * ==== Oppose ====


 * ==== Comments ====

All matters of the Voting Policy apply when voting here. Good luck to all contenders, and please see the talk page to ask any questions or leave any additional comments not pertaining to individual nominees. This election has no set ending date, as there is no set number of people who re being elected. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:50, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Current standings
The following standings are in order of nomination:
 * 1) Drewton (5)

Support

 * 1) Drewton is one of the most active members on the nominations page who is not a High Priest. He puts up lengthy and detailed reviews in a line-by-line format, which is exactly what the High Priests need. He’s clearly a qualified candidate, and he’s very active so we don’t have to worry about him not doing anything and then resigning anytime soon. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 00:50, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 2) Sure. I'd like to note, however, that people generally go inactive once they start getting responsibilities around here. &mdash;  JM ' 76 ' Ask Archives [[Image:Sabersmilyjm76.jpg|18px]] 02:34, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 3) *That's because they feel that there's too much for them to do because there are too few people in positions, hence the reason for these massive elections. - Brandon Rhea (talk) (contribs) 03:02, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 4) **Hmm. Brilliant idea, then. ;) &mdash;  JM ' 76 ' Ask Archives [[Image:Sabersmilyjm76.jpg|18px]] 03:07, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 5) Better him than no-one. Seriously Drewton is a very active and helpfull user. He is (as Brandon said) the most active of the people who nominate and he also puts in a reviews,(as Brandon said).Put simply, per Brandon. --Arav the Undersith (Contact Me ) (My contributions ) 05:49, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
 * 6) A tentative support. Whilst I feel slightly more criticality is needed, as I've said before, I feel Drewton can up himself to do this, and gain this skill through being a High Priest. --[[Image:Darthtomsig.png|163px]] (talk) (contributions) 07:12, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 7) Per all above. -- Michaeldsuarez [[Image:Sabersmilygreend.jpg|20px]] ( Talk ) ( Deeds ) 15:06, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * 8) Yes indeed. It's an odd experance, voting for one's replacement. I predict that Drewton will largely overshadow me.
