# How would you close a vote proposing a change in which seven people essentially say support and maybe a few words, nothing really in depth, and three people have articulated major concerns with the proposal at the level of detail of these questions? Would that process change if it was only one oppose like this to seven support, and if that oppose appeared just before you were going to close the RfC? | # How would you close a vote proposing a change in which seven people essentially say support and maybe a few words, nothing really in depth, and three people have articulated major concerns with the proposal at the level of detail of these questions?

A few questions targeted towards individual candidates across the process: | |||
# How do you see your history as president of the WikiOasis Foundation fits into this role, and the trust that the community will be placing in you that may not yet have been rebuilt? | |||
# What do you think that you would bring to the steward team that other candidates may not? | |||
# Can you discuss what your reasoning behind [https://italianbrainrot.wikioasis.org/wiki/Special:Log?logid=23008 this] was, as there were local administrators at the time who could've handled this apparent one off incident? | |||
# How do you feel that team discussion fits into the handling of appeals by banned and locked users, do you think that an appeal should be solely handled by one person without discussion? | |||

# A user requested a wiki say a year ago, made a very large number of edits for say six months, and for the last six months has completely disappeared. A new user comes in and successfully manages to be appointed bureaucrat by a peer. This user also makes many contributions but is running things very differently then how they were originally. A few weeks later the original bureaucrat returns and is absolutely irate about the new guy. The two have a massive pissing match and block each other which goes as well as you expect and it comes to your table.
