Star Wars Fanon News

 * Written by Darth tom

In the time since we’ve been away, a lot has happened on Star Wars Fanon, with Michaeldsuarez and Gnosis is knowledge being elected administrators in place of Victor Dorantes and Jedi Master 76, as well as Michael’s revelation that he wouldn’t be as active as we all believed in the election as had happened. Since the time in which that has happened, the voting policy was reformed, so that now merely one hundred edits are needed to be able to vote, and not the previous two hundred and fifty coupled with two months. Jedi Master 76 has also proposed, successfully, to change the IRC policies, now having made a change to those policies.

With the changes to the voting and IRC policies, the categorization policy also faced reviewal, with changes being determined by unanimous community vote, leading to fixes to the policy previously not proposed before. Ataru’s proposal to mandate defaultsort also passed, with little opposition against the proposal by our joint-newest Decreton Lord, a Wookieepedia administrator himself. In the Consensus Track, the Third Featured Article Review has finally got properly underway, with the combined efforts of Brandon Rhea, MPK, Solus and Atarumaster88 hammering into it with energy showing them to be worthy of their status.

In other Consensus Track matters, the Halo Fanon administrator H*bad has been seeking for public opinion on Halo Fanon, so as to improve it, with Drewton, Arav the Undersith and I giving input upon what we feel could improve our old partners. Ataru has been active again in regards to the PG-13 rule, proposing an idea to elucidate upon that rule, with the opinions being varies but mostly focusing around one point. Taking his new job well, Ataru also proposed a new idea regarding the links needed for an article to be a Featured article, one that originally gained much support before Brandon Rhea came in with a new idea.

Currently running Forums include one upon the Channel Operators on the IRC, with elections for new ones being held in addition to a cleanup of the current ones. Two current ops not involved with Wikia’s community team or the Star Wars Fanon administration, Jedi Master 76 and I need a name, look set to retain their op status, but Pinky49 and his bot, as well as Whopper, do not look set to retain it. Solus and Kathkira, both users I supported, look set to gain ops, whilst Arav the Undersith does not. I myself proposed a method for dealing with any future inactive administrators, which has faced opposition due to a large loophole in it. And, finally, for the first time in a few months, an administrator election has been called, with Drewton and I running as the candidates. ''CUSWFN edition XIII CUSWFN EXIII''
