'''Why should we make this wiki unfriendly to newcomers? Everyone should have the opportunity to run, and if someone proves themselves to be a boon to the wiki then they deserve to win, no matter how new they are.'''

2: The edit count vote limit. Why? Couldn't someone just make an account a month before they run, spam on it to get 400 edits, and then vote themselves with it? There should be a limit, just not so high. 250 seems reasonable. And the time limit is also pretty reasonable.

'''Your logic makes very little sense. You say that someone can spam to 400, so having the limit there doesn't make sense, but instead, the limit should be a lower number that's easier to spam to? A person can spam to 250 easier than spamming to 400...'''

3: disallow staff to vote

Well heck

3: Close the previous month's nomination threads, why are they here?

​​​​​​​So we can fondly remember times long passed
