KHWiki:Votes for featured users

Featured Users is a place to recognize the hard-working editors that make this wiki such a wonderful place. The rules and guidelines are a work-in-progress; if you have suggestions, please leave them on the Talk Page.

Nomination Guidelines
So, what makes a user eligible for nomination? Here are the guidelines:


 * The user should be obviously hard-working. Any sort of edits, from spelling corrections to full page rewrites are acceptable, as long as the user actually does work.
 * The user should not vandalize, or maliciously violate the policies of this wiki. You don't have to be Pollyanna to be nominated, but any unhappiness you may have shouldn't disrupt the wiki.
 * Please put emphasis on the user's edits for the last month. While a user's lifetime edits should certainly be taken into account, it should be possible for a hard-working "newbie" to be the Featured User, if they outshine other editors in that month.
 * Any editor who currently holds a staff position is ineligible for this award.
 * It's probably a good idea to be an editor of this wiki.

Nomination Process
So, there's an editor you think should be recognized. How do you make it happen?

For the first 21 days of a month, just post the name of the user, and sign under your nomination with ~ ; if someone has already nominated the user you support, just second their nomination. If you want to explain what it is about the user that makes you love them so, just add a comment as if you were posting on a talk page. After the 21-day period, the staff will go through the edits of the top two nominees, and have a simple vote in the staff lounge on who they think deserves the award. On the first of the following month, they will place the award on the winner's user page, and present them on the wiki's front page along with a commemorative, custom drawing of the winner, of absolutely no monetary value.

To keep any one person from sweep the awards, any editor can only win once. Furthermore, to prevent sockpuppeting and other forms of cheating, only registered users may vote. If it is discovered that someone is being a poor sport and attempting to sockpuppet, their votes for the current election, as well as the next two, will be negated.

Voting
Each registered editor can make one nomination or seconding; they must put their vote and signature, ( ~ ) underneath the nominee of their choice. Don't vote for yourself.

January 2011

 * LevL - An all-around good editor and Wiki Gryphon that has received a staff nomination multiple times. He's a good vandal fighter, does gnome work, and is a extremely helpful toward new users. So, I nominate our tetra-lingual friend from the Netherlands, LevL, to ring in the new year.21:05, December 1, 2010 (UTC)


 * KKD - An great friend to everyone, and one of the creators of the community favorite Mirage Arena. He has also made talk bubbles for a plethora of users.  How about a community favorite for this month?

December 2010

 * IZerox - He might not have an astronomical edit count, but he's provided some phenominal images, such as the full renders of Xemnas' Dragon battleship, a full image of Young Master Xehanort, and his discovery that the BBS Unknown uses Saix's model. He's been very active recently in particular, getting us renders of BBS characters. So, for all that, I nominate the Image Sniffer, IZerox.23:02, November 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Wholeheartedly! -- 02:39, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed! --03:17, November 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * Hard work should be rewarded. -- 01:37, November 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * What Havoc said--
 * He deserves it. --Xabryn 01:51, November 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * As long as he doesn't hate me, i'm on board! --
 * A little late here, but I agree! IZerox has made some great image contributions! 18:06, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

 * NinjaSheik - ''02:10, August 18, 2010 60.54.117.211 (Talk) (6 bytes) (Replaced content with "HAHAHA")

How many times has this happened? Far too many, but through it all, Ninja has been there to stop it. Obviously the best vandalism fighter this wiki ever had, she has undone numerous low quality and bad faith edits. Without Ninja, this wiki would sorely be lacking a proficient vandalism fighter.
 * 1) Absolutely! Ninja doesn't get the credit she deserves. -- 19:15, October 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Couldn't agree more. 19:16, October 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * 19:35, October 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, yes, yes (996 Yes's later), YES! I probably woudn't even be editing this wiki if it wasn't for NinjaSheik.20:07, October 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) When I grow up, I wanna be as good of a vandal-fighter as Ninja!
 * 2) Fair enough. You could say she is...the best reverter of them all...
 * 3) Ninjas are great! This one is the best! --Mikazuki Heart~You honestly think you can beat me?~ 01:03, October 21, 2010 (UTC)

October 2010

 * LapisScarab - When you need a design section, who ya gonna call? Ghostbusters! Lapis!  He has made such vast contributions to this wiki that it would sorely be lacking if he would have never joined.  Aside from fighting vandalism, gnoming, and editing templates, he is an all around great editor and friend.  I nominate LapisScarab.
 * 1) Pareil pour moi. Not to mention that he's gotten Staff nom quite a few times. ^_^ 00:57, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Well, I vote for him, but unfortunately, he's on wiki break, so he won't know for a while.-- Random! to a point!  00:59, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I have to agree; I don't understand why he hasn't been made mod yet. -- 01:21, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) He's done great on the wiki, not to mention he is also a great guy. -- 01:24, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 17:10, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) He is a great guy, not to mention that he's done great on the wiki. Glorious  CHAOS!  17:24, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) The wiki wouldn't have a single design section without him, and he's a great guy. 18:06, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I vote just in case someone else tries to challenge Lapis. For me he's the user of the year because he must have written half of all text on the wiki by now.Shard of Truth 22:12, September 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) He deserves this title. - Lev  L  17:28, September 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) I agree! He has done outstanding work! --Axel&#39;sGirl 02:55, September 9, 2010 (UTC) Axel'sGirl

 * maggosh - Especially in this month, maggosh has done an incredible amount of work, both gnomish and dragonish. He is constantly friendly, and funny, and has never vandalized unless he did it too sneakily for me to catch. I wholeheartedly support him for this month's Featured User. (Bwahaha if he gets elected before the end of the month, he loses by default! Actually, that could happen with both of you gusy! Evil!) Glorious  CHAOS!  21:13, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) I wholeheartedly agree. =D 21:18, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Seconded [[file:Way to the Dawn KHII.png|20px]]Light? Dark? More like the Dawn!! [[file:Wayward Wind KHBBS.png|20px]] 21:22, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Thirded Good job! -- Silver  Crono  22:58, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Hate showing favoritism, but maggosh, you get my vote, friend :D - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  02:40, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) I agree ^_^ -- 22:01, August 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 22:02, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * ShardofTruth - He's never caused any problems whatsoever, and we all know his images contributions. He's made heavy contributions since day 1, and somehow finds a way to continue into this month.21:23, August 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) I second this. POWER TO TEH IMAGEZ!
 * 2) I love this guy. He's ShardofTruth, need I say more? -- 02:37, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Way to go ShardofTruth! You have my vote!
 * 4) I'm a sucker for an image editor. Awesome work, thanks dude. -Azul 81677  02:13, September 6, 2010 (UTC)
