December 2021/Coordination</a></div> <p>The Arbitration Committee elections are organized entirely by community volunteers, independent of the Arbitration Committee itself. Before every election, an RfC is held so that the community may propose and implement any changes to the format of the election. Any rules or practices that were not specifically changed by the RfC are carried over from the previous election. </p><p>Ordinary editors who help run the day-to-day operations of the election are known as <b>coordinators</b>. Election coordinators have no special authority or abilities, but facilitate the smooth running of the election in any way that is needed. Editors interested in helping run the election can add their names to the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:COORD21#Coordinators" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:COORD21">list of coordinators</a>. </p><p>The three-member <b>Electoral Commission</b> is appointed by the community in a separate RfC before the election. Commissioners are responsible for addressing any unforeseen problems that may arise in the election process, and for adjudicating any disputes relating to the election. The Election Commission has the full mandate and authority to decisively settle any issues that arise. In addition, while the Electoral Commission itself is not inherently responsible for logistics of the election, Commissioners should ensure that preparations for the election move forward in a timely fashion. As such, Commissioners are <i>de facto</i> coordinators and usually have an active role in running the election. </p><p>The last group of volunteers are the <b>scrutineers</b>. Three scrutineers are drawn from <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Stewards" class="extiw" title="meta:Stewards">stewards</a> who primarily work at <a href="https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/List_of_projects" class="extiw" title="meta:List of projects">other projects</a>. Scrutineers are responsible for providing oversight for the voting process itself. Scrutineers' responsibilities include guarding against abuse and technical errors, ensuring that valid votes are counted while invalid ones are discarded, and confirming that the final tally of votes is correct and certifying the official results. Scrutineers work behind the scenes and are not otherwise involved in coordinating the more minor areas of the election. The Electoral Commission is the liaison between the scrutineers and the rest of the community. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Guides" data-mw-thread-id="h-Guides"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Guides"></span>Guides<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Guides"></span></h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021&action=edit&section=9" title="Edit section: Guides"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"headingLevel":2,"name":"h-","type":"heading","level":0,"id":"h-Guides","replies":["h-For_candidates-Guides","h-For_voters-Guides"]}}--></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See the <a href="#Election_timeline">"Election timeline"</a> section above for voter and candidate eligibility requirements</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="For_candidates" data-mw-thread-id="h-For_candidates-Guides"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-For_candidates-Guides"></span>For candidates<span data-mw-comment-end="h-For_candidates-Guides"></span></h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021&action=edit&section=10" title="Edit section: For candidates"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Nominations for candidates opened at 00:00 UTC, 07 November 2021 and closed at 23:59 UTC, 16 November 2021.

The process was conducted using the <a href="/wiki/Special:SecurePoll" title="Special:SecurePoll">SecurePoll</a> extension which ensured that individual voters' decisions were not publicly viewable (although technical information about voters, such as their IP address and user-agents, were visible to the WMF-identified election administrators and scrutineers). </p><p>Voters were invited to choose one of three options for each candidate: "Support", "Oppose" or "Neutral"; and the number of "Support", "Oppose" or "Neutral" preferences a voter could express was otherwise limited only by the number of candidates. After voters entered their choices for all of the candidates and submitted their votes, they could revisit and change their decisions, but attempting to do so would require expressing preferences for all candidates from scratch. Because of the risk of server lag, voters were advised to cast their vote at the latest <u>an hour before the close of voting</u> to ensure their vote would be counted. </p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238436933"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1255103175"><table class="plainlinks ombox ombox-notice ace-banner" role="presentation"><tbody><tr><td class="mbox-image"><span typeof="mw:File"><span title="ArbCom"><img alt="ArbCom" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/00/Judges_cupola.svg/50px-Judges_cupola.svg.png" decoding="async" width="50" height="40" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/00/Judges_cupola.svg/75px-Judges_cupola.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/00/Judges_cupola.svg/100px-Judges_cupola.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="155" data-file-height="123"/></span></span></td><td class="mbox-text"><div class="ace-banner-navbar"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1129693374"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239400231"><div class="navbar plainlinks hlist navbar-mini"><ul><li class="nv-view"><a href="/wiki/Template:ACE2021" title="Template:ACE2021"><abbr title="View this template">v</abbr></a></li><li class="nv-talk"><a href="/w/index.php?title=Template_talk:ACE2021&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Template talk:ACE2021 (page does not exist)"><abbr title="Discuss this template">t</abbr></a></li><li class="nv-edit"><a href="/wiki/Special:EditPage/Template:ACE2021" title="Special:EditPage/Template:ACE2021"><abbr title="Edit this template">e</abbr></a></li></ul></div></div><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1129693374"><div class="hlist ace-banner-lead-links"><ul><li><span class="ace-banner-mainpage"><a class="mw-selflink selflink">2021 Arbitration Committee Elections</a></span></li><li><a class="external text" href="https://vote.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:SecurePoll/list/1303">Voter log</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Coordination" title="Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021/Coordination">Contact the coordinators</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021" title="Wikipedia talk:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021">Discuss the elections</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:5-minute_guide_to_ArbCom_elections" title="Wikipedia:5-minute guide to ArbCom elections">Quick guide</a></li></ul></div><span class="ace-banner-candidates">Candidates: </span><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1129693374"><div class="hlist ace-banner-candidates-links inline"><ul><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Guide" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021/Candidates/Guide">Candidate guide</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021/Candidates">Candidate statements</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Questions" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021/Questions">Questions for the candidates</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Arbitration_Committee_Elections_December_2021/Candidates/Discussion" title="Wikipedia:Arbitration Committee Elections December 2021/Candidates/Discussion">Discuss the candidates</a></li></ul></div><div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed"> <div class="ace-banner-guides-title"><div>Personal voter guides</div></div> <div class="mw-collapsible-content"> <p>These <a href="/wiki/Category:Wikipedia_Arbitration_Committee_Elections_2024_voter_guides" title="Category:Wikipedia Arbitration Committee Elections 2024 voter guides">guides</a> represent the thoughts of their authors.
