# ''More than 10,000 global edits? More than 20,000?'' There is multiple ways to participate in Wikimedia projects, but I think an U4C member will not be able to handle conflicts properly if they lack any significant experience engaging with Wikimedia projects directly. 10,000 global edits is a very moderate threshold. If we had a far more experienced pool of candidates, I would likely use a way higher threshold. |

This is a brief guide on how I will be voting in the U4C 2024 election. A better overview of all candidates is available at User:Giraffer/U4CE2024.
Voting criteria[edit]
This is the main criteria I plan to apply for voting. It is not meant to be copied, but to give ideas on how you could define your own voting strategy, given that there is a fairly large candidate pool that most people are likely to be not familiar with.
- Did the candidate fill the initial statement? U4C will require significant commitment from its members and the community will be likely to demand as much transparency from it as possible. A blank candidate statement signals lack of commitment both to the role itself and to transparency. I will be opposing any candidate not meeting this criteria.
- Did the candidate engage in the question phase. While some candidates might have more availability than others, and I do not plan to rank them based on number of answers, a complete lack of community engagement during the election might signal a lack of commitment to accountability. I will be opposing any candidate not meeting this criteria by the end of the question phase.
- More than 10,000 global edits? More than 20,000? There is multiple ways to participate in Wikimedia projects, but I think an U4C member will not be able to handle conflicts properly if they lack any significant experience engaging with Wikimedia projects directly. 10,000 global edits is a very moderate threshold. If we had a far more experienced pool of candidates, I would likely use a way higher threshold.
- Signed up more than 4 years ago? or at least 2? The threshold here is rather arbitrary, but I think it takes quite some time to grasp the social dynamics of Wikimedia projects, as well as getting familiar with their policies. Even the most skilled candidate is likely to be unequipped with the role if they joined Wikimedia not long ago.
- Steward, arbitrator or functionary? Members of ArbCom already have the experience for the tasks that U4C will carry. Stewards should have it to some degree too. All of them have already demonstrated that they have a high degree support from their projects.
- Administrator (sysop)? Candidates who are administrators in any project might enjoy higher community trust and are more likely to have faced hard decisions on conduct.
- No recent or concerning sanctions? Everyone makes mistakes, but I expect every U4C member to have a great behavioral track record, at least in the recent past. In short: a track record of being part of the solution, not the problem.
- Any red flag? I will be checking if there is any major red flag that would warrant an oppose regardless of any other criteria.
Table[edit]
Here's a summary based on the criteria I outlined above. The first column indicates how likely I am to support, abstain or oppose each candidate.
