User blog:Squidnerd/Request for Demotion: Ponyo Fan

Welp. has been bureaucrat for six years. Before Calaz was even born. But it's time to end it.

Ponyo has been substantial in the growth of this wiki. She and William Leonard are the only users to have witnessed the The Sponge controversy in early 2010 and have made a contribution in 2017. But 2010 is different from 2017. In 2010, she was a socially-awkward seventh grader. Now, she's a grown woman who has no primary intrest in SpongeBob (at least, judging her Discord posts).

All Ponyo does is rate articles (a power given at the content-moderator level) and occasionally do promotions.

Ponyo also has the lowest approval rating in the administrator polls. Polls aren't exactly 100% accurate, but you get the general picture.

The main reason my previous request (in December 2016) failed is because people were afraid that I would become sole bureaucrat. I understand that and respect your decision for that. However, anyone eligible (pretty much every administrator at the moment) can run for bureaucrat at anytime and I am required by both Wikia and local law to promote them. FANDOM asserts that wiki's are community-controlled and not dictatorships, so it is a capital offense for me to blatantly disobey the community. So if any of y'all think I'm a power-hungry maniac, feel free to report me. I won't sweat (actually i would, lol).

'''This is a multi-option proposal. This is the first one to utilize the IRV/RCV (Instant-Runoff Voting or Ranked Choice Voting) system.'''

Here are the options:

A - Ponyo should keep her bureaucrat powers.

B - Ponyo should have basic administrator rights, while demoted from bureaucrat

C - Ponyo should be demoted completely

Basically, read this if you're not sure how this works. If you still don't understand, just list the options like this (from most preferred to least preferred). If you do not list all three options, the only options you submitted will be used. If you list two options and the decision comes down to the third option, your vote will not be counted in it.:

For example, here are my options from most preferred to least preferred.


 * C
 * B
 * A

If you have any concerns on the voting system or in the request generally, feel free to contact me on my message wall. Thank you.
