Hi all, I've recently been working on a DokuWiki plugin to allow OpenNIC members to start votings in a centralized place that is more cleanly, straight forward and easier to use: https://github.com/opennic/dokuwiki-opennic-vote-plugin The plugin was enabled on our wiki.opennic.org instance since a few months but was not mature and stable enough. It can be seen in action here: https://wiki.opennic.org/votings (scroll down to the end of the page). With the latest commit (https://github.com/opennic/dokuwiki-opennic-vote-plugin/commit/4d5dd3075168fa383508b29f8486f881746c7bc8) the plugin became more stable and ensures that all votes are recorded now. To create a new voting, one has to browse to "https://wiki.opennic.org/votings/new_voting_name_here?do=edit" and fill the textarea with ====== Piwik ====== <columns 100% 30% 70%> <devote title="Test Voting" close="2018-10-18"> * Option 1 * Option B * Other Option * etc. </devote> <newcolumn> <code> Long, detailed text of what is being voted on. </code> </columns> This creates a new wiki page that is automagically included into the /votings page where all previous and currently open votings are displayed in chronological order (newest to oldest). Once a voting expires (`close="2018-10-18"` field), it is automatically closed, no new votes are possible and the results are displayed. Note that our DokuWiki instance automatically syncs changes to GitHub (https://github.com/opennic/wikipages/commit/b66d3f5758fc4181a15786c9346ed72775f4f3c3) and GitLab (https://gitlab.com/opennic/wikipages/commit/b66d3f5758fc4181a15786c9346ed72775f4f3c3) so anyone interested can go there to verify the end results of votings by comparing these to the results displayed on the wiki. What do you all think about using the DokuWiki system for voting going forward from now on? Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Fusl -------- You are a member of the OpenNIC Discuss list.
