| − | If the rate of nominees continues at its current pace, then in a few months we will have a rather full table of completed reviews. In anticipation of that scenario, I suggest setting up tables with these four titles, moving entries into autocollapsed archives after a sensible amount of time spent in the 'Recent Reviews' table.

| − | == I feel like I'm being passed by ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | Okay, I would like to start by saying that I do not wish to offend Warlike in any way and he deserves a Wiki Cap, but I'm rather peeved. I have been working on the Dutch side of the TF Wiki for nearly 1.5 year by now (I started in October 2010), I have contributed heavily '''and I have yet to receive the wikichievement for translating''', let alone the Wiki Cap. Now I come here and see that Warlike has been nominated. Again, he deserves it, but I feel like I'm being ignored here. In fact, despite being the only translator for a good year, I was getting flak for supposedly having edits that 'were not up to standard', while I was the bloody standard. Yes, I am aware that in the past month I haven't done a lot of work, that's how a study is for ya, but that does not take away that I have sunk a lot of time and work into the Wiki, yet I'm not seeing any kind of recognition here, not even in the form of a simple wikichievement.<br>
| |
| − | I know, I know. The Wiki Cap is a privilege, not a right and I have been working silently all this time, not ever asking for anything for that reason. And for a similar reason, I should not be frustrated, nor disappointed for not being granted such privilege. But that doesn't take away that it looks like people just keep ignoring my work over and over and over again.<br>
| |
| − | Again, I do not wish to insult anyone, particularly not Warlike, whom I still believe deserves a Wiki Cap, but I just had to get this out there. -- <span style="font-family:TF2 Build;font-size:90%;">[[File:Killicon train.png|40px|link=User:Hefaistus]] [[User:Hefaistus|<font color="#FF9933">Hefaistus</font>]]</span> - [[User talk:Hefaistus|<span style="color:black;font-size:82%;">talk</span>]] 14:26, 22 January 2012 (PST)
| |
| − | | |
| − | :I couldn't agree more to be honest. This is ofcourse based on just interacting with Hefaistus for just a few times and going through his edits, but I do feel there is some form of applause missing. Of course I cannot really say much more about this as I am in no position to do so, perhaps other people have thought different about you or maybe people simply had other issues. This is highly unofrtunate though, and I do understand your sentiments. Thank you for expressing your faith in me as a editor though, that means a lot coming from someone who has edited the Dutch wiki before I cam along. Also remember I am only nominated for this hat, I do not have it yet. I think interacting with the wiki community is very important in order to get recognized easier by other people, as they will be the ones making the first step (nominating you).

| − | | |
| − | :Don't feel sad, mad or bad about not getting a Wiki Cap. If you think you deserve it, you don't get it. If you don't need/want it, but worked for it, you maybe get it. I was nominated twice(first was terrible), and still i don't got it. But the guys who got it are the people chosen by the people, which are also checked by the moderators which then decide if a person puts enough into it to deserve it. I won't say that you don't deserve it, but some languages are a wasteland and you must accept that some persons don't read or look at these edits, and maybe that's why you were not chosen. Give it time and people will see what you did. Also your text is a good reminder, maybe some people will look more into what you did and maybe you get a cap without being nominated for extra-hard-work.

| − | ::Thanks, these replies do me good. It is just that for the longest time already, I feel like I'm being ignored around here, ya know? This is also in part of the aforementioned wikichievement. While I know and accept the fact that it is quite likely I will never get the Wiki Cap - which is fine anyway, like I said, it's a privilege, not a right - it just saddens me to know that my work goes even too unnoticed for that simple wikichievement. I may have overreacted a little, I may have hasted my previous message and if I did, I apologize. But I just had to get this off my chest. I will continue working, I will continue editting, and I will continue warring with Warlike for who gets the first edit. Thanks for reading and replying.

| − | :Some history: You were previous nominated and all were actually in favor of giving you a Wiki Cap based on your English contributions and how Dutch contributions approximately looked (no staff member could read Dutch). So we had to check, and this was done with [http://steamcommunity.com/id/luurt/ Luurtt] from the Dutch Steam Translation Service who (to everyone's surprise) found the translations to use poor spelling and unrelated words.
| |
| − | :In retrospect we should probably have checked with other people as well, from the Steam Translation Service or with other Dutch wiki editors now that there are some (hai Warlike), in case Luurtt was wrong in the first place, or in case things have improved since then. I just re-checked with Warlike though and he seemed to agree with what Luurtt said, but said that things have improved since then.
| |
| − | :As for addressing the "feeling overlooked", I highly recommend the IRC channel. You've been in there twice before, but try to stick in there for longer, rather than just coming when you need to ask something and then leaving.

Back when discussions were going for a new Wiki Cap system, I made a post about translators versus English editors. It took me 2 to 3 hours to write that thing, just to make sure everything I said was clear and correct. Most of the time, I type out a reply for a discussion and end up wiping it completely, because I believe it's not up to par. That is why I am also so very apologetic about my previous post.

| − | == How to nominate...(v1) ==
| |
| − | We dont need to adjust this: Nominee, Backers, Date Nominated . It works well and can't be simplified with a template or other code to be more efficient. What maybe should be added in the description that the way they should "layer" there "backer"-nomination for a person. I think maybe this gives a good example and is already done that way in some nominations: <br>[Link(Article)]: Text about the link, and what made you pick it, tell us people what is well done special or interesting in it. [Link(Upload]: (...) others . I just wanted to point that here silently out, because i also didnt do that and think this would be better to note, that way. A link itself to articles doesnt help much if you a.) don't speak the language and b.) doesnt understand the significant difference in the code itself and c.) what is alternatively done to make it work.

| − | | |
| − | Leaving a note here since I don't want to gum up the edit summary.
| |
| − | | |
| − | I've decided to veto Flying Furry's nomination because we only last reviewed him back in November. To be perfectly honest, he hasn't added very much more on top of his contributions since then, so it's unlikely that the result of a nomination discussion would change very much. This veto isn't due to any problems with the contributions themselves, it's rather because it's being done too soon after his last one. Please try to nominate him again at a later date when there's more to look at. --[[Image:User LordKelvin Signature.png|link=User talk:LordKelvin|80px]] [[User:LordKelvin|<span style="text-shadow:#0031CF 0px 0px 3px;"><font color="#000087"><big>'''LordKelvin'''</big></font>]]</span> 11:28, 5 January 2013 (PST)

| − | == The new Nominee Vote Queue ==
| |
| − | I assume one of the characteristics of this setup was anonymity, however viewing the history for the page allows one to see, for each admin, which number they incremented. One solution would be fore the admins to put in their votes with an alternate account, or to simply ignore the issue.

| |
| − | : I thought this was that new way that was discussed last year (ish). So in the case of all the mods not able to get together at one time, this system is used to throw it votes. Also, If this setup was for anonymity, Then they would have restricted us from giving out Wiki Cap discussion logs of said person. (Which they don't). [[User:Ashes|Ashes]] 05:54, 2 April 2013 (PDT)

| − | == Emergency meeting 1.0 ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | So it was recently brought to staff attention that a user hit 1 year in the nomination queue, so we held an impromptu meeting to try and resolve the bottleneck. The basic gist of what we got was this:
| |
| − | # Don't change the [[Team_Fortress_Wiki:Wiki_Cap/Nominations#Nominee_Vote_Queue|nomination rules]]. 5 for is good enough for the time being, and it's preferable to find other means of enforcement.
| |
| − | # In the same vein, bug people more often. If someone's sitting in queue for a month or so, and they have a good number of backers, they should get votes.
| |
| − | # Possibly go over the [[Help:Group rights#Administrators|list of staff members]] and mark a few 'inactive' or 'on break'. This will help to determine how big of a quorum we need, i.e. 5 out of 10 is enough but 5 out of 16 is not.
| |
| − | # Possibly add a caveat to the rules so that if someone raises an objection for a nominee, it's dealt with.
| |
| − | # Set a deadline as to when we revisit these rules, i.e. if nothing changes. My suggest is 'if anyone has been in queue for more than 6 months after this month'.

| |
| − | :My 2¢: We should change the rules so that if there's any votes against, a discussion (with the person who has the concern) is required. I'd also like to remove the staff members who haven't made more than 10 edits in 2 years.

| − | :+1 to all the above. Let the "if anyone has been in queue for more than 6 months after this month" start mid-june. We also discussed threshold changes to limit it by time but we figured it's better to leave the rules as-is for a short time to see if it's just a matter of poking the right people. If, in a month, we find out that it's not (by way of said metric), then we should change said thresholds. — [[User:WindPower|<span style="font-weight:bold;">Wind</span>]] 22:30, 17 May 2016 (PDT)
| |
| − | :Basically +1 as well, deadlines and objection rules sound good but: In the unlikely event that a staff member does not edit anything at all, but we know is active (in irc or emails) he should stay marked active. How do we deal with situations where multiple people vote against? Discuss with everyone who has a concern? Discuss with at least one who has a concern? Unlikely case that won't happen anyway?

| − | ::I don't know anybody who's active on IRC and hasn't hit 10 edits in the past 2 years. Regardless, we'd do this on a case-by-case basis anyways. If two people vote against, then there's probably a pretty serious issue going on, and I'd expect a lot of people to be voting against.

[[User:WindPower]] (I think, this is waaaaay long ago) gave me moderator permissions because of the amount of technical junk I was working with for templates, it was easier for me to have move and delete permissions instead of bugging someone over and over to push things from my sandboxes to the wiki proper.
