| ==Procedures==
| |
| Nominators, nominees, and voters should follow the following procedures while the proceedings are active.
| |
|
| |
| #A nominee must be nominated in the forums listed below by a different user. Please copy and paste the format shown on this [[/Forumheader|this template]] to the new RfA.
| |
| #The nominee must either accept or deny the RfA. If denied, the RfA will be closed. The nominee must also answer the questions posed in the "Questions" section of the nominee's RfA.
| |
| #A current administrator must check any new RfA to ensure that the nominee fits the requirements for administratorship.
| |
| #Halopedians are encouraged to vote in '''support''' or '''against''' the nomination.
| |
| ##Voting may commence only after the nominee accepts the nomination, if the nominee does.
| |
| ##Voters must have at least 50 edits to Halopedia, and have been active one month before submission of the RfA. Sockpuppets will not be allowed, and upon the discrimination of the current administration, sockpuppet votes, if present, will be identified, and their votes rendered null. Sockpuppet masters, if found, will be subject to [[Halopedia:Blocking Policy|punishment]] for violating Halopedia's sockpuppet policy.
| |
| #The RfA will be open for ''at least'' 2 weeks while users submit their input. It may be closed prematurely by a request by the nominee at any time.
| |
| #The nominee is fully encouraged, though not required, to publicly respond to any criticisms to allow differences to be sorted out.
| |
| #The final result of the voting will determine the next step.
| |
| ##If there are few/no "against" votes which raise significant questions about the user's character or history, the RfA will pass after a 2 week period, provided there is at least a 70% support ratio.
| |
| ##If there are multiple unresolved issues with the user's character or history, the RfP will continue for longer until the questions are either satisfiably resolved, or an overwhelming majority of users still support the RfA.
| |
| ##In voting RfAs, the rule [[Halopedia:What Halopedia is|Halopedia is not a democracy]] applies. This means discussion will carry more weight than simple voting majorities.
| |
| ##The "current administrators and patrollers" are the final deciders of the vote, although community input is also greatly weighted.

This page is an official Halopedia policy
Please read through the policy below to familiarize yourself with our common practices and rules.
If you have any questions, suggestions, or complaints, please post them on the talk page.

Requests for Patrollership, abbreviated as RfPs, are requests for users to be granted Patroller positions on Halopedia. As Halopedia's community size and article count grows, more Patrollers may be required to maintain its operation, as well as replace patrollers who have become inactive.
RfPs can be closed early if current Administrators see that the candidate has little chance of success, but only an admin may do this. Requests may also be withdrawn at the request of the nominee or the person who nominated them.
Requirements
All nominees must fit the following requirements before nomination. If a nominee does not fit the requirements, an administrator may close the nomination immediately.
- Users must have at least 1,000 edits or sysop status on another wiki (please link to the wiki).
- A member of Halopedia for at least four months.
- No history of vandalism, abuse of Halopedia, or compromised accounts for the user in question.
- No history of blocking on the basis of harassment or personal attacks.
There is no limit to the amount of times a user may apply for Patroller rights. However, users must wait at least one month to submit a new request after any unsuccessful requests.
