Inkipedia:Demotion

User rights management is an important part of Inkipedia. Because certain abilities are given to only a few editors, we as a community must ensure that they are using their rights to the fullest. A demotion movement can be created for any reason, but the involved user must be notified via talk page one day before their demotion is further discussed.

Why would a user get demoted?

• The user is inactive for an extended period of time (six months or more without contributing)
• The user does not use his or her rights
• The user does not use his or her rights in a way helpful to the Inkipedia community
• The user uses his or her rights in an abusive way, causing harm to community members or Inkipedia itself
• The user is completely unresponsive (30 days or more without responding to talk page messages and emails)

Demotion requests

A demotion can be requested by any user with more than 1 month of Inkipedia experience and at least 100 mainspace edits. Each request must include the involved user's username, their rights, the rights under question for demotion, a reason why the request is being made, and a timestamped signature of the user requesting the demotion.

To file a new request for demotion, you may create a page at Inkipedia:Demotion/Username with this format:

__NOTOC__
{{Userlinks-short|User to be demoted}}
Detailed explanation of why you are requesting demotion for this user.
~~~~
==Remove Username's <type of rights> rights==
===Support===
#
===Oppose===
#
===Comments===
*

If a user has requested their own demotion or agreed to their own demotion, no voting is needed. The following format should be used:

__NOTOC__
{{Userlinks-short|User to be demoted}}
Explanation of why you are requesting demotion for this user. Make sure to mention that the user has agreed to the demotion.
~~~~
==Remove Username's <type of rights> rights==
