This is where Episode 13 of Season One of The Demon's Light will be roleplayed. Please remember the guidelines.
This proposal has been withdrawn and I'm therefore closing it, thanks for voting.
As proposed, it's time to re-roleplay the basement scene in Formation. I'd prefer for Quinton to start the scene, so we'll go from there.
That time has come. AR has concluded, here are the results:
- - - First tally - - -
Downtown Freezy - 7 Supports
Quinton1721 - 2 Removes, 1 Neutral, 4 Supports
TheKorraFanatic - 7 Supports
- - - Final tally - - -
Downtown Freezy - 7 Supports
Quinton1721 - 4 ½ Supports, 2 ½ Removes.
TheKorraFanatic - 7 Supports
- - - Results - - -
With all votes tallied, no one has reached the threshold of 67% for demotion. Thanks for voting this time and letting us know your thoughts! Hopefully all feedback is taken into account before the next AR on July 10th, 2024.
Support for all.

As a side note, the kid hasn't really done anything to deserve a demotion this time.
Any issue comes from disliking his personality as a person and not really his moderation. Also, he edited more than both of the bureaucrats in the last six months, so "he doesn't edit" isn't exactly valid.
This thread is where the fifteenth administration review will be held. Occurring every six months, the administration review allows the community to give their input on all the staff members. In order to participate, please use one of the following options to vote on a staff member:
Keep/Support - This means you want the staff member to remain in their position.
Neutral - This grants the staff member 1/2 a keep and 1/2 a removal vote.
Remove/Oppose - This means you want the staff member to be completely removed from their position.
Suspend - This means you want the staff member to have their rights removed and then returned after a period of time. It is recommended to indicate how long you want the staff member removed.
Demote - This means you want the staff member to be demoted to a lower position, but not lose all of their rights. It is recommended to indicate the user right you want the staff member demoted to.
At least 67% of votes in favor of a removal, suspension, or demotion are required in order for them to occur. Staff members cannot vote for themselves. Please keep discussion and votes civil.
Critique is allowed and welcome, but please make it constructive. If you are a staff member, do not pressure users to support you. Grudge votes will not be counted. The fifteenth administration review ends on January 24th, 2024 at 9 AM CST.

Downtown Freezy - Keep: While I think he needs to be a little more active on the wiki in general, he has made progress (he rewrote Gabriel's page and handled his RiS, started a rewrite of Cicero, replied to the RP) and he's a great admin and moderator. He's quick to block any troll account (especially during the middle of the night) and the server would get out of hand quite often without him, though I do think he's sometimes too lenient towards Quinton1721.
Quinton1721 - Neutral, leaning towards remove: It's true that Quinton has improved somewhat in the last three months or so, but there are some important issues we need to discuss. In January, he was suspended by the community from the character of Wen Li due to his abhorrent attitude over the RP. He disagreed with this vote and that's completely fine, however it does not give him the right to ignore or attempt to overturn the suspension.
Quinton completely refused to back away from the pilot's seat and repeatedly pushed for him to still be in control of the character. He repeatedly abused Octopus Wizard's non-confrontational personality to bully his way into almost every single Wen Li reply that happened during his suspension, he continued to edit Wen's page with substantial edits (something he rarely does any other time), mocked the suspension whenever it was mentioned and repeatedly called it a joke, he repeatedly tried to talk Octopus Wizard into dropping out (including a session with him, Downtown Freezy, and Wizard in VC) and even attempted to end the suspension early. While I admit the last one was an honest mistake, it's another example of how he refused to leave the character alone and felt he was in charge of lifting his own suspension.
Sure, one could argue that Wizard's heart wasn't in the suspension and that he admitted taking on the character was a mistake - but that doesn't erase that Quinton was, indeed, suspended by the community. A staff member shouldn't feel that he is above the community and cannot be held accountable by their decisions.
With that aside, the guy is on break way too often. While taking a break is fine and real life should take precedence over The Demon's Light Wiki, he also has a duty to the wiki and the RP by agreeing to be an active RPer and staff member. The RP is repeatedly stalled by his breaks, his secret plans, his lack of communication, and who knows what else. After the suspension fiasco was over at the end of February, he went on break in March and said he wouldn't return until he was done with school. However - this is an area where he has shown actual improvement. He actually announced his break, as opposed to all the other times he just ran away for ages and sat in silence. This is a welcomed change and I'm glad to see it.
During this term, he's made a lot of edits (Rewritten Richard Devlin page, infobox update to every character page, creation of a life template, Vehicles page, interactive Thales page, addition of episode appearances to all location pages, customization of badges, several revisions to major character pages, cleanup of many pages in the Project domain) and I feel he should get credit for doing such. However, I still feel as if his most major works were left behind and unworked on. Wen Li has had the "rewrite" template for over two years and the page just sits there, rotting away. Aside from the addition of the template, Marshall Rooke's page has barely been touched in years and is horribly written (which is my fault, as I'm the one that wrote the description three years ago) and outdated. As major characters in the story, these pages need to be high quality and it's important they're worked on.
And now we move to the wiki's biggest project of this term: art.
Naturally, because the entire wiki moved towards art and accepting it / working towards putting it on every page, Quinton made himself the enemy of the art and trolled it at every attempt. Obviously, it's not required to have art, but why does he have to make a habit out of trolling it? He never tried to peacefully work on his issues with it, his solution was just "remove it all."
While there has been honest improvement in his behavior (the first time in a long time), I feel as if the issues were too big for me to just ignore and vote support.

"Do you even know what that word means, bro?"
"Regardless of whoever Michael is, we just need to push forward," Atticus announced proudly.
"Michael?!" Atticus yelled. "What do you mean?!"
"God damn, Keika, it doesn't matter what his surname is," Atticus answered.
Atticus was shocked, but all he could think of was getting his own badass gas mask.
Now that a week has passed and this proposal has over 51% support, I'll be closing it as successful. Thanks for voting, everybody!
"Stop! What are you doing? Richard and Beth aren't involved, they can't know."
Pulling out her dagger, Delilah slowly crept into the field and turned around, ready to face the demons.
"What? Are you serious?" Blossom could hardly believe what she was hearing. She hadn't expected Samuel, of all people, to offer his assistance. She had assumed he would give a stern response, maybe even a refusal to let her continue her role in the operation. Or worse, that he would be reporting their little mission to the authorities.
"I'll have to discuss it with the others, I wasn't even supposed to join — I overheard them talking about it and they had no choice but to let me in. They're not going to be happy that I told you, that's for sure."
"Well," Blossom answered, "it's a surprise ambush against Alchemilia Corporation. We're, uh, going to be going to their main headquaters, Remnant Rock, and launching two operations or something."
She went quiet before continuing.
"Like, they have someone on the inside and he's going to help some of them sneak into the building and plan an attack from there, while the rest will storm the entrance to cause a distraction. After that, I don't know, I think there's some idea about a group of rebels turning on the employers after the first team cuts off the lights.
"And they, uh, they want to capture the CEO, Gabriel Arsene, in his office. But I don't know what the plan is after that."
