Talk:Requests for Comment/Amendment of Stewards policy and Proposing yearly steward elections

Comments regarding this RfC as a whole
While my comments are directed towards LegoMaster (as the proposer of this RfC) everyone is welcome to comment.

Cited from the intro text:
 * NDKilla is a steward, and he is fairly inactive.
 * Duly noted. I am under the assumption this is your reasoning behind this proposal (which I understand), please correct me if needed.
 * so that users such as CnocBride or MacFan4000 can be a steward
 * If CnocBride and/or MacFan4000 would like to become stewards, they are free to nominate themselves (which they have already done). MacFan4000 withdrawed their own request, thus this RfC won't help MacFan4000 in any way to gain these rights. Judging from the comments users gave during CnocBride's request (I had not commented, this is from a rather objective view) CnocBride would not be helped by this RfC either (well, unless you relax the 'amount of comments' requirement and reduce it to exactly 7, but the outcome of the RfC was 50%/50% and thus would not met your proposal of 70% or 80% support ratio).
 * User:Revi is a steward on the Wikimedia Foundation, and he is currently not a steward.
 * Revi is not active on Miraheze, so I'm assuming Revi is not actively working on getting the rights (though, Revi is always welcome to nominate themselves!). Oh, and Miraheze != Wikimedia Foundation. While experience as a Steward at the Wikimedia projects is definitely good experience, Miraheze is still a separate project.
 * So we need to modify the Stewards policy so it could be more fair.
 * While you do not explicitly mention whether the current policy is 'unfair' or 'fair but not fair enough', I would like to hear what's unfair with regards to the current policy.

I would like to hear from you why elections should become yearly instead, that is actually an unfair clause. You mentioned that even the most trusted users on Miraheze cannot gain steward rights, if this was true at all this would be due to the amount of minimum votes and the required support ratio. Restricting elections to a restricted time period per year will actually make it harder to become Steward 'at a project where even the most trusted users cannot gain steward rights'.

Looking forward to your response. Southparkfan (talk) 16:22, 13 May 2019 (UTC)
