Saturn120
Saturn is a very active member of our community. His TL, Hitler The Artist, and his massive contributions to map games was cause for his nomination in the stirlings for Best New Contributor. He is active on chat and has even created a guide to aid new users looking at joining map games. Thus, I hereby nominate Saturn120 Toby2: THEY CALL ME Mr. Awesome!!! 00:44, March 8, 2015 (UTC) We have no need for any more TSPTF members at the moment, in my honest opinion. Although Sat would make a good constable, he needs to work on his maturity. Sat is definately a candidate if we get a boom of new users, perhaps nearing the Summer. Consul Ioshua (Talk)

My concern is the same as Josh's. Although I like Sat, I don't think he's ready for constable. I am that guy (talk) 01:01, March 8, 2015 (UTC)

While I agree that we have way too many TSPTF members, I also believe that we have to many inactive TSPTF members. We should streamline the force, recruit new members, and promote longtime members such as Crimson and MP to Brass. Vivaporius: "I don't need a slogan" 01:13, March 8, 2015 (UTC)

I'm removing this tomorrow if Saturn doesn't accept. PitaKang- (Talk to me | Kill count: 6)

First of all, Thank you Toby for the nomination. Why I would want to be a constable would be the fact that I am a very active member and person in the chat community. My timelining skills might not be as active as others, but I think I have usually settle arguments inbetween individual users well and have undone a good amount of vandalism by trolls. Although some users may say I am too immature for the position, I think that other users should work on theirs as well. It's a whole chat-wide thing, imo. Therefore, I accept this nomination.

Feudalplague
Feudalplague is a very active member on alt hist wiki and has made many contributions on map games, editing them, correcting them for accuracy and mediating disputes. He has been a member for almost two years and has around 6,700 edits. He is very active on chat and accessible via his talk page. He would make a positive addition and help improve this wikia. --Daeseunglim (talk) 02:33, March 8, 2015 (UTC)

 * I am voting no because to be honest I think Feud needs time without the stress to figure things out. He seems to not always be mentally there in chat, in the past few months having a number of explosive incidents that I believe were questionable. I haven't really seem him resolve disputes, much to the contrary. For example see the recent controversy banning Ms, where he didn't help, but rather threw his opinion into the fray and seemingly made things worse. He claims to be a successful moderator for popular games, but if I recall his actions as a moderator in PM3 are what got the whole game against him, and basically forced him to resign. I haven't seen him make amends with anyone really, let alone Viva. And for the most part I have not seen him talk respectfully (maybe because he tends to argue with me). Not to mention the numerous times he's been drunk or high on chat (recently he stated that substance abuse has not decreased), and the many times his friends have logged on to his account. I'm sorry Feud, I understand you have personal issues, and I feel for you, but I unfortunately must vote no. Harvenard2 (talk) 03:48, March 8, 2015 (UTC)

I will accept this nomination, Thank you daes. I have been a rather active member for 2 years now (with a few months away to handle my own personal issues) During which i have been relatively willing to resolve disputes and help people out, i have attempted my own TL's but due to lack of time to really do research i have not really had time to work on them, but i have made some notable advisements of other peoples Time lines and continue to do so. As well as this i have moderated, and continue to moderate two of the wikis biggest mapgames with relatively good results (even going against the grain to a good degree to acheive a solid result). I also have done a few vandalism fights over the past year, mostly just reverting edits, not having to take it to TSPTF page to handle (usually cause someone was there to handle it on chat). As for issues i have had with other users, i usually have one extremely hostile user for the past two elections of which i have made amends with, Particularly Viva, me and him have worked well past our differences and are able to speak to eachother respectfully and like grown adults. I wish to promote this behaviour as well to prevent vendettas or hatred against users (without good reason) If accepted i will work to promote this behaviour, fight further vandalism, and attempt to promote growth of the Wiki as well.

Toby2
He's been here for many years now, and I think he deserves a promotion. He is really active and helps with people in chat, in timelines, while working on things of his own. He makes great turns in things like AvA, and I believe he'll be even better as a Lieutenant. Upvote  - The March Sig  02:04, March 8, 2015 (UTC)

When I was made constable, I promised I would improve the wiki. I promised it would be involved more. Since then I have worked to fight trolls and vandals, broken up chat arguments, and provide support to those who need it. since then I have also started one solo TL and a collaborative TL with Willster22. As an LT I will be more involved than I am now and aid in improving the wiki even more. Thank you for nominating me. Toby

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.
 * 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.
