Commonmark migration
Oct 26, 2018 at 8:53 comment added Yechiam Weiss @KentaroTomono so basically, your problem is with the people that visit the site, that they don't vote. And that's fine, I personally would love to see more people active on this election, but this isn't something you can logically solve, so as much as I feel you in this, this isn't the place to discuss this issue, but rather on chat. If you feel like you have suggestions to bring more people to vote, that's perfect and reasonable to suggest here on Meta, but otherwise I don't see the point on keep arguing on this topic here.
Oct 26, 2018 at 7:36 comment added user13955 @PhilipKlöcking it sounds like better. When I noticed at the ELL, I could not voice a word. personally, The first note might be better who came to the election site, I think. And I hope you can migrate this issue with Meta, with many thank you (m_m).
Oct 26, 2018 at 7:28 comment added Philip Klöcking Mod @KentaroTomono Thing is...your biggest problem seems to be about that this number is displayed at all. If it wasn't, effectively only including the latter three ones, would you really have that much of a problem with the numbers? I mean, seriously, it may be better to make only accounts that log in "eligible voters", I totally get that point. I guess it is simply easier to implement the way it is and does not make much of a difference in terms of practical outcome since those who do not log in obviously can't vote. Is it really just about the labels?
Oct 26, 2018 at 7:17 comment added user13955 @YechiamWeiss First of all, when I voted at the ELL, I wanted to make a voice. Though, personally it makes me feeling they are We don't give* about meta issue", and the welcome announcement for Philosophy election came. I just issued the personal concern here. May be I asked at Meta. but I did not wanted ELL mods to watch this, so I posted this question here. Sorry for it. But the pattern is same even though the ratio is a bit different.
Oct 26, 2018 at 6:54 comment added Yechiam Weiss @KentaroTomono not what I meant. At all. I'm genuinely trying to understand why do you think it matters.
Oct 26, 2018 at 0:21 comment added user13955 @YechiamWeiss For these who don't care, it would not matter, I think. So you can screw it or be happy with whatever anyway.
Oct 25, 2018 at 17:13 comment added Yechiam Weiss @KentaroTomono does it matter though? Like, for real, why do you care if there are inactive accounts? (not that it'll matter, or even be relevant, to discuss in this Meta, because it belongs to Meta.SE, but just for the sake of the discussion.)
Oct 25, 2018 at 1:14 comment added user13955 I understand the reputation matter. I apologize. However, What we definitely can see here is that StackExchange sites have a strong tendency of losing members that did actively contribute as active contributors so that we experience a growing number of prolific, but now unused (or less used) accounts, which in itself is problematic. Then wouldn't it better to delete the non active users, for example, after they have been inactive for 2 years. to make their reputation back to 100 points?
Oct 24, 2018 at 14:01 comment added Philip Klöcking Mod @KentaroTomono: What do you mean with "reputation bar"? The 150 points requirement? This is implemented so that the people that vote have shown a certain level of understanding regarding the rules, principles, and mechanics of StackExchange before they have got their say in the self-governmental aspects of the site, just like with close votes and other privileges.

Oct 24, 2018 at 12:10 comment added user13955 Thank you. >**You also seem to have the misunderstanding that "more eligible voters" automatically means "more participation/traffic". This is - in fact - wrong** Then wouldn't be better remove the reputation bar for election? Why does it exist?
