| This page lists Pikipedia's policy towards polls: what the community needs to do in order to submit, approve, and use polls.
| | #REDIRECT [[Pikipedia:Poll]] |
| | |
| == Process ==
| |
| Every poll has to go through this process.
| |
| | |
| # A user that has an idea for a poll writes a discussion section for it on the '''[[Pikipedia:Poll/ideas|ideas page]]''', following the guide there.
| |
| # Other users can then add support votes, opposition votes, or comments about the poll, including what parts they think should be changed.
| |
| #* For a month after the poll is created, it is forced to stay in this stage.
| |
| # After a month, its fate can be decided.
| |
| #* If it has at least one more supporter than opposers, it becomes accepted, and its discussion section moves on to the '''[[Pikipedia:Poll/future polls|list of future polls]]'''. The nominator's vote isn't counted for this.
| |
| #* If there are more opposers than supporters, the poll is rejected, and the discussion section is archived in the '''[[Pikipedia:Poll/rejected nominations|rejected nomination list]]'''. Again, the nominator's vote isn't counted for this. | |
| #* If the community is still trying to craft it, or it hasn't received a single vote either way, then it will remain there, and will be re-checked at the end of every month.
| |
| # If a poll has been accepted and is sitting on the list of future polls, it will be eventually picked and added to the front page.
| |
| #* The picking process is done by the editor in charge of updating the front page, but it's normally under a first-come-first-serve basis.
| |
| # After staying on the front page, it is left open on Polldaddy, but is archived under the wiki, in the '''[[Pikipedia:Poll/past nominations|past poll list]]'''.
| |
| | |
| == Poll requirements ==
| |
| A poll doesn't need much in order to be suggested as an idea. But an ideal poll is one that:
| |
| | |
| # Fans of the series ''want'' to answer.
| |
| # Can provide some interesting stats after the votes are tallied.
| |
| # Doesn't have any "maybe" or "depends" answers, since those are almost always what people vote for.
| |
| # Only has a few available options.
