I quite like the idea of this page and the template for ways for users to apply. As I was reading this, I remembered [[http://nookipedia.com/page/staff-request/|this page]] that we had drafted as an application page. Although I like the practicality of the wiki one, I quite like the design of the html page one. However I do like the idea with actually making a form that users can submit.

Proposal of Application Process

Hey guys - since the beginning of Nookipedia, staff members have been promoted based on closed discussions amongst current staff members. Our system is flawed for several reasons, most important being:

  • Discussions took place on the Bulletin Board, which is unattached from the wiki and, as was seen with the recent downtime, caused hold-ups
  • Editors could not easily see the discussions regarding why they were or weren't promoted
  • It's hard for editors to "apply" for a staff position, since there is no formal process

A more formal, open process has been in the back of everyone's minds for a while, but it was never put into action (until now). I've created an application page, which revolves around these basic principles:

  • A user can apply themselves or nominate someone else for a position, with their permission
  • Editors can comment and any staff members vote
  • A Director, Bureaucrat, or Administrator, a week after the nomination, determines whether a promotion is successful, based on staff votes, and also on editor comments

This is all tentative and up for discussion. It's what I think is the best system, but if anyone else has suggestions, comments, or changes, please say so! Feel free to edit the page, too. Thanks guys. ~SuperHamster Talk 21:33, 10 November 2012 (EST)
