User blog:Squidnerd/Revert: Nuclear Option Proposal

If you don't know what I'm referring to, I want to revert this

51% is too low. Way too low. A simple majority isn't good enough.

Hypothetically, let's say an admin requests and receives 51% support. 49% opposed the request, which is outstandingly high for an administrator. Something almost half the community opposes shouldn't be exerted as equally as something with unanimous support. Also, proposals vary in impact - it's a bad idea to judge them on one vague system.

That's why I'm proposing a system that takes a proposal's content into effect.

What This Will Do

 * Require all proposals (except user rights requests and reviews) to pass at 60%: Basically what was in effect these last few months
 * All chat moderators, discussion moderators, and rollback requests are to pass at 60% support
 * All administrator requests are to pass at 65%
 * All bureaucrat requests are to pass at 71% I mean really...if 29% of the community voiced an oppose (not a neutral), you shouldn't be requesting for the highest public office.
 * All demotion requests (regardless of office) are to pass at 60%

Voting ends on August 31.
