Vandenhoek
It's been some time since we've inducted a new person into the TSPTF and I cannot think of anyone more deserving of this role than Vand. We haven't had someone of this caliber in a while if we're being honest here; the guy's a very talented mapper, he writes detailed althists, and knows how to work a community. Like it or not, map games are a cornerstone of our active community and Vand knows how to not only put together a map game, but keep it fun and enjoyable for those involved, which is no easy task. Furthermore, he is well-liked both on the Discord and the wiki and is always ready and able to provide help to those who ask. I have no doubt in his capabilities to use the powers that come with being a constable responsibly. Let's get this man a role! -Curmudgeonly yours - Crim --DRAFIGO13 (talk) 00:47, January 21, 2019 (UTC)

 * Discussion:
 * Thank you Crim, I appreciate and accept the nomination. On the subject of constable saturation, I would say that there on average is only four TSPTF members online, of which one to two are constables, compared to the approximately fifty people usually online on the sidebar. I have also experienced many times where I needed a constable's help to use rollback and no one was online at the time, leading me to pinging a bunch of admins for help, so having this role will help a lot with undoing vandalism and fixing pages. Anyway I hope I will make a good addition to the team, and if I don't get in I will continue doing what I can to help the wiki as a user. Thanks, Vandenhoek (talk) 21:48, January 20, 2019 (UTC)

Impeachment
It is entirely possible that a member of the TSTPF may neglect his duties and/or abuse their power. If this happens they must have their user rights removed. To keep it fair, the following procedure has been adopted.

Rules

 * User who feels a TSPTF member should be impeached from his position, must first contact the TSPTF on their talk page with their complaint and attempt to work out the issue with them.
 * If user refuses to accept any compromise from the TSTPF he may then bring up the TSPTF member for impeachment, with support of at least one TSTPF member.
 * Impeaching user must explain why he thinks the TSPTF member should have his user rights removed.
 * Registered users' votes must have two-third super majority to impeach a TSPTF member (Only users who have been registered for over a month — from the day the nomination is put forth — are counted).
 * TSPTF members’ votes must have a two-third super majority to impeach a TSPTF member.

To view past impeachments, see the archive.

Reasons
There are only a few recognized reasons why a TSPTF member should have his user rights removed:
 * They are not actively participating as a member of the TSPTF.
 * They have not been carrying out the responsibilities they volunteered for.
 * They have have not been fair, restrained and/or constructive in their dealings with other editors.
 * They consistently refuse to follow the conventions and guidelines of this community.

'''One of these reasons alone is probably not enough to impeach a TSPTF member. Consider that before demanding an impeachment.'''
