For Point 3:. Just as I, ZodiacGiraffe and JDisbae did, the candidate(s) with the most votes should spend a short period of trial CM/RB/admin before being officially elected. I agree. I think we need people to use the apply for staff board so we know who actually wants to run. Otherwise, votes are wasted.

As for whether or not staff get the final say, I still think staff should get the final say. As JD4 said, someone could be really popular socially on the Wiki-- and therefore get more votes-- but not be very good at actually editing articles or resolving conflicts. We want to ensure we promote users that are very qualified and not simply popular.

So just to be clear: Points 1 & 2: Point 3:
