Editing Draft:Request for comment Policies





Skywiki has not put official policies  in place and there for I think it should all be decided thru a RFC,  This will Cover multiple aspects of request and policies that skywiki has.




== Proposal 1 Steward policy Reform ==

=== Introduction ===


(1) Per policy it requires that stewards must be in good standing to return as a steward within 12 hours, while the policy is in good standing I believe stewards Should be able to return within 24 hours instead of 13 hours to give them more extended time to return,  (1)   

(2) In addition to this I propose that the part about being in good standing is removed and the reason for this is because Request for Revocation exist and that should be Handles thru a request for revoktion thread   Which Returning in good standing would be based on the judgement of one Steward instead of multiple  and I think a request for revoktion should be followed by the request of the Community 



=== Comments ===
# The 12-hour timeframe is a deliberate choice to balance out the time needed to get everything sorted out and introduce rational thinking and not raising issues with Stewards being promoted out of the blue because they "quit yesterday and decided to come back".
# This part is very unclear. Do you mean that we should allow any Steward who resigns to come back within 12 hours of their resignation or force them to go through the RfP process again if they quit? If the former, then no, because a Steward can resign under a cloud and then just come back like nothing happened, avoiding scrutiny from the community; if the latter, then I'm neutral on removing it.

== Proposal 2 Request policies  ==


Currently skywiki has no policies in place to cover many aspects of Voting however I am proposing we add multiple policy in place to cover most of the issues of voting and to ensure that voting is fair to everyone and is done within a reasonable matter. The Following shall be added to this, while miraheze has a descent Policy which cover majority of the Issues faced here when it comes to request I think we can use some of those policy's to  Cover these issues 


(1) Users may only use one account to vote, and shall not use any  alts to vote.(While this is a policy covered by other policies this should be Covered by Request policies as well 

(2) Accounts created before the Request for comment are negligible to vote

(3) a Request may be closed by a Steward early at a stewards Discretion Before the minimum of 5 days have passed

(4) In addition to the Request policy 

=== Comments ===
# I agree with this, though the way it's currently written is technically redundant.
# If users must create alternate accounts to vote and alternate accounts are banned from voting, how do you expect people to vote?
# This is an awful idea and should never be implemented - since nothing in this proposal bans Stewards from voting on their own requests, a Steward can open an RfC, vote in favor of it, and then close it as successful, thus allowing them to change policy however and whenever they want. We should be aiming for a representative consensus-based system, not a dictatorship in all but name. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 08:12, 2 January 2025 (UTC)


== proposal (4)  Discord Server ==
Skywikis discord server is Ran by multiple Volunteers including Tali, Cocopuff, And EthanBlaisNotAlarms, I am proposing the following is done 


(1) Rules are redone and gives users more freedom without a large amount of restrictions 

(2)  server actions are no longer carried on Wiki unless Severe.

=== Comments ===
# The rules should have been redone a long time ago.
# Absolutely - the Discord server and wiki are two separate things and should be treated as such. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 08:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

== Proposal (5) Content policy ==
While the content policy does give users more freedom to do as they please I feel it could be more clear and a few extra policies could be added in order to Prevent issues and therefore I am proposing 


(1) Forking is allowed as long as appropriate is credit) while a lot of Wikis do lack appropriate credit it is important to note the copyright is a big deal and to avoid such issue a policy should be put into place when itc comes to forking)

(2) Wiki must comply with the topic of the Wiki 

(3) '''Wikis must not sexualize minors'''

(4) Wikis may not spread false information

=== Comments ===
# Forking from wikis on other platforms was never prohibited to begin with. The policy against duplicating SkyWikis exists so there isn't 50 different wikis on the same subject, which will impact our SEO.
# If people want to change the topic of their wiki, as long as it doesn't violate the Content Policy, we should let them.
# There is no point in specifying that sexual content depicting minors is allowed when sexual content as a whole is already banned.
# This already exists in the [[Global Conduct Policy]]. [[User:Tali64^2|Tali64^2]] ([[User talk:Tali64^2|talk]]) 08:36, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
