Axmann8's Voting Record

Centralized Discussion[edit]

Strongly Oppose. Now that I have learned what flagged revisions are, I can now say that I completely oppose the idea. Implementing such a system would turn Wikipedia from a free resource that people can work collaboratively on (which is what makes Wikipedia most attractive to people willing to edit it), to a strict bureaucracy where only the most well-respected people can even have a chance to contribute to. So, just for the record, I oppose flagged revisions, and if such a system is implemented on Wikipedia, I, and surely many other editors and members, will not return. This proposal, if implemented, will surely destroy Wikipedia

For right now, Oppose; Reserve right to change opinion. Wikipedia is a site that has not been around for ages. It has been around a decent amount of time, but the only reason I oppose to this is that the person could come back if they wanted, and if they made significant edits to their users space, they may have been working on something important that they didn't have time to get back to in a while (job, school, etc). Removing this kind of information serves no relevant purpose, and is destructive. However, I think these users should have their usernames moved to a temporary "Guest" name, so if other people want the username, they can take it. We can't expect for a person to "save their seat" for a year, and not let someone else have the name. If the person wants to come back, they could request a username change. Problem solved.

Strong Oppose. I see no reason for this action to be taken. This will undermine the authority of stewards (of which I am not, so I have no conflict of interest). I think it is better to keep the current user rights to have a more fair balance of powers.

I am in support of option 4. This guideline seems one that is built upon common sense, and this I believe should be followed (even though most do follow it).
