Requests for Comment/Electing IRC Group Contacts

I am opening this RFC to try and establish policies and procedures for electing and appointing IRC Group Contacts. Prior to this we have not ever had anything established when it comes to appointment. MacFan4000 (Talk Contribs) 21:43, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Proposal 1a
Requests will be made on Community Noticeboard.

Proposal 1b
Requests will be made on Talk:IRC/Group. (doesn't currently exist, but can be created)

Proposal 1c
Requests will be made on Talk:IRC

Proposal 2a
There will not be a required support ratio.

Proposal 2b
At least 60% of the votes must be in favor.

Proposal 2c
At least 75% of the votes must be in favor.

Proposal 3a
Only active members of the IRC community are eligible to vote in Group Contact requests. Votes from anybody else would be struck. If somebody is banned, and therefore not active, their vote would be struck.

Support
as proposer. If anybody was able to vote, we'd have votes from people who don't really understand what the role or even what IRC is. This will ensure that everybody at least somewhat understands what the role entails. Plus, I don't think that people who aren't part of the community should be deciding who is a GC for a community that they aren't a part of. MacFan4000 (Talk Contribs) 21:43, 28 March 2023 (UTC)

Oppose

 * 1) Not because I oppose with the idea in principle but because of the way this is phrased, there’s a log of gray area in order to judge community involvement. This also isn’t standard for any other permissions request, so it’d be a bit weird for just one role to have this criteria.

Proposal 3b
Anybody can vote on these requests.

Oppose
per my support above. MacFan4000 (Talk Contribs) 21:43, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
