Vivaporius
I was actually surprised when I found out that Viva was not a Lieutenant. He possesses the skill, the professionalism, and the experience that warrants him at least a nomination. I certainly believe that Vivaporius is well-suited for this position in the TSPTF.
 * Supporters
 * ​I don't agree with him politically and he is a bit abrasive at times, but he calls it as it is and isn't afraid to call someone out for being stupid. For these reasons I think he would be great. #PraiseRoosevelt. 18:55, January 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree with Edge on this front. If a person can do a job well, then they should definetly get a position. Sat (Talk to me!) 19:44, January 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * I too am rather surprise he hasn't been elevated as of yet. He's proven himself many times over. He has my support. -- 22:27, January 23, 2016 (UTC)
 * Currently the best user I can think of to elevate to this position
 * Awesome guy I would like to thank Feud for making Borealia possible  19:41, January 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * I don't always agree with him but he knows what he's about and knows how to get things done. ~ Scraw 19:42, January 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * We need more token black people in the LT department. Just kidding, Viva is an excellent member and very level-headed 5/7 would support again SkyGreen24 19:45, January 24, 2016 (UTC)
 * He knows what he's doing. —Bfoxius (talk)

 * Discussion
 * I have to say that I am honored by the nomination, and would be happy to accept the privilege of being a Lieutenant for the wiki. I hope that I can deliever on the expectations the rank comes with. I understand that the wiki is suffering from a serious quality problem, and I intend to do all I can to help clean the wiki and provide a superior level of quality for the folks who want to see this wiki grow.

SkyGreen24
With all of the talk of reform and generating new life to the wiki, I think it's important that we have the right people managing such reform and invigoration, and unfortunately I can't do it all by myself. Jokes aside, I really think Sky has proved himself as a Constable and I think he can do a lot of good for the wiki as an LT. "This is not your grave  but you are welcome in it.

 * He's been very diplomatic and professional with me and others in the past. Sky has a level of decency about him that we need more of on this wiki, and I am proud to give him my vote of approval. Flag of the Xanian Empire.svg Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 19:51, January 24, 2016 (UTC)

 * Well, gotta say thank you for nominating me MP. This is a very nice birthday gift. I hope I can serve the wiki well. I am well aware that I might not be as good of a candidate as my co-constable Viva, but I still believe I could do my job well and would be very happy to get the support of my fellow wikians.

Scrawland Scribblescratch
In line with the idea of putting more people in the TSPTF to help oversee reforms and bring life to the wiki, I think it would be best for another experienced and active user to join me in the lofty ranks of the Brass. I can think of no one better than Scraw, who has proven himself as a dedicated member of both the TSPTF and the wikia. He's practically my Althistory twin in many aspects, and I'd be happy to see him take his rightful place.

 * I accept this nomination. I would like to thank MP for nominating me. Just last week the two of us have been on this wiki for four years now. This wiki means a lot to me because when I joined, it was a great place for discussion about all sorts of topics and also a great community for writers who wanted to make althistory content. Although many believe this wiki has declined in recent years, I think it still has the potential to be that great place again. I want to help restore it in this time of reform and stuff. I look forward work with the people to make America the wiki great again. ~ S 02:07, January 25, 2016 (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 supermajority 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 supermajority 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.

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