Last Sunday I wrote to the elections committee asking them what they intended to do about people who had put themselves forward as candidates but had not either signed the declaration or provided their full name. The community consensus appears to be that candidates have to do both or they are disqualified from the election, but I presumed the elections committee would be the appropriate body to decide specifics. I have had no reply. Since then everyone who has put themselves forward has either provided the details or withdrawn apart from one person - ScribblewikiLover - who has still not provided his full name. Voting is due to start very soon. It is unacceptable to start an election without knowing who the candidates are. I had hoped that the election committee would resolve this question with a clear decision one way or the other but all we have had from them is a resounding silence - they seem either unwilling or unable to make any decisions like this. I think it falls to the community to decide in their absence. I suggest one of two avenues: - either we agree that s/he hasn't answered the question (which according to the timetable s/he should have done by 13 September) and is therefore disqualified - or we say he must answer the question by 20 September or he will be disqualified. What do others think? Andrew
