Wikimedia explicit approval elections: Difference between revisions

(→‎Results: clarifying the mention of combined approval voting)

== Results ==
The Wikimedia Foundation has used this method for Board of Trustees and Funds Dissemination Committee elections in [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_2013/Results 2013], [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections_2015/Results 2015], and [https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Foundation_elections/2017/Results 2017], after previously using [[Approval voting]] and [[Schulze method]]. After that, it was replaced by STV with Droop quota and Meeks method.
 
If tallied using [[score voting]] rules (i.e. using "[[combined approval voting]]", where oppose equals "−1", neutral equals "0", and support equals "+1"), the 2015 Wikimedia Board election would have had a different winner, with the candidate in 4th place moving up to 2nd. The 2017 Board and 2015 FDC elections would have had a different top-3 order, but the same 3 candidates would have won.
