WhoWeAre Stage 1:About The Consensus Poll
Contents
We're Done When ...
We are definitely done with stage 1 of WhoWeAre if we can reach and maintain the levels of agreement described in this section.
GoThresholds
- We need at least 7 ActiveMembers, not including staff. All are welcome to participate.
- We need 90% of ActiveMember participants to have status "YES".
- We need at least 5 AboutUsStaff. All are welcome to participate.
- We need 90% of AboutUsStaff participants to have status "YES".
DoneTimer
- This document stays above the GoThresholds and remains unchanged for at least 72 hours. The timer will be reset if there are any modifications made to the stage 1 document.
Inactivity
- InactivityCycle for this consensus poll is 9 days.
- Consensus Poll Participants who do not respond to messages left on their status page within a time period specified by the InactivityCycle, are notified after the first InactivityCycle is complete through an Inactivity notice posted on their status page. If they remain inactive for another InactivityCycle after the "Inactivity notice" has been posted, they can be moved to an Inactive status, which means that their participation in the consensus poll will remain suspended until they remove the notice. Inactive participants can remove the inactivity notice from their status page and reset their status at anytime before the DoneTimer expires.

How to participate
If you don't feel strongly about this decision, please feel warmly welcomed to work on other things. If you are feeling ProcessFatigue please feel warmly welcomed to take a break. Before leaving, please consider leaving either a YES or NotYet status with an explanatory comment.
Taking a break while leaving a yes status means:
- "Given the GoThresholds for this poll and the people who are participating it feels extremely unlikely that this poll could succeed without creating a high quality document. I trust you all to watch out for my interests and come to a good decision. If the GoThresholds were lower, or if Suzy Trustworthy wasn't actively participating I might feel otherwise. I know that Suzy Trustworthy will ping me if I need to become involved again. So, have at it friends and know that I support your effort in spirit even if I can't actively participate right now."
Taking a break while leaving a not yet status means:
- "Given the GoThresholds for this poll and the people who are participating it feels like this poll might pass even if the document isn't high quality. If the GoThresholds were higher, or if Suzy Trustworthy was actively participating I might feel otherwise. But since the thresholds are so low and no one I know from my own personal experience to be trustworthy is involved, I'm going to ensure that the final results are better by leaving my status a NotYet . The plan can still succeed, it will just require higher levels of support to counteract my NotYet ."
If stage 1 of WhoWeAre in its current form doesn't speak to you, please directly edit the page. No need to explain your every edit, just tweak the document until it works for you. (EfficientlyExpressedSuggestions)
