Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees/Call for feedback: Board of Trustees elections/Discuss Key Questions/Community Question Period Expectations

This proposal has been suggested during the Call for feedback about Board of Trustees elections. If you want to suggest a proposal, please begin by discussing the proposal idea on the Talk page.

Proposals edit

Open questions immediately after the nomination period, but at least two months before the election, and require nominees to answer at least four questions per day.
As a more nuanced version of the IP's phrasing of the proposal I raised on discussion: "Ensure at least 3 weeks between questions being closed and election commencing, removing only duplicate/spam/otherwise unacceptable questions". Assuming candidates pay attention to questions as they start being asked, that will give at least 5 weeks work on them prior to voting starting, which should be more than enough time. Translation support should be offered to candidates if requested. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:07, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If the above proposal is not accepted, then instead of ElectCom designating questions, questions should be decided by an open vote of editors Nosebagbear (talk) 17:07, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
