Forum:MASSIVE Council of Seers Election

This is yet another MASSIVE election, but this time it’s for the Council of Seers. This was originally an ongoing election for High Priests, but that board merged with the Decreton Lords to form the Council of Seers. For those of you who do not know, the Council is in charge of maintaining and voting on Good and Featured article nominations (note: anyone can vote on Good article nominations, unlike Featured article nominations where only the Council can vote). 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 Seers to maintain the Council.

In order to become a Seer, 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 Seer, 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 Seer. 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) 22:40, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

Support

 * 1) Okay, I think I know what a lot of the reaction to this nomination will be, and that will mainly stem from, “hey, wait a minute, wasn’t Victor a Decreton Lord before he resigned?” The answer to that question is “yes”. One of the reasons that Vic stepped down as a Decreton Lord was due to a lack of time in his schedule. Thankfully, he no longer has that problem, and I can confirm that as he’s shown me his schedule. He has a four hour block during the day where he can review articles, and he’ll also have free time after that. Now that I’ve explained that away, I think it’s fairly obvious why I would want to see Vic as a Seer. He is one of the better reviewers of this website, as he is willing to diligently line-by-line an entire article rather than passing judgment based on length. Anyone who has seen him review knows this. He has also accepted this nomination on IRC, and I know that time and dedication will not be a problem. He’s called out nearly half the Seers on not doing the best job they can be doing, and I wouldn’t expect hypocrisy like that from someone like Vic. Since I’ve gotten long winded, I’m going to end this now as you all know Vic. You know that he’s qualified. I give him my full support. - Brandon Rhea  (talk) (contribs) 22:40, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

 * 4) 100% support. I would have nominated him already if I'd known he was willing to review again.  Drewton  [[Image:Era-old.png|20px]] ( Drewton's Holocron ) 22:46, 15 October 2008 (UTC)
