Post-vote
Add the parameter closed=yes
to the existing {{Proposed feature voting}}
code. The "instructions for voting" then change into "voting closed". You can use parameters yes=number
, no=number
, abstain=number
, result=approved/rejected
and comment=A comment
to summarize the results:
{{Proposed feature voting | closed = yes | yes = | no = | abstain = | result = approved/rejected | comment = }}
In a voting with many votes the yes/no/abstain values are best obtained by copying the wiki markup to a text editor of your choice and counting the vote templates (e.g. {{vote|yes}}) within.
If number is 0, please do not fill in the parameter! Otherwise, e.g. 0 votes against will be shown.
For example:
{{Proposed feature voting | closed = yes | yes = 2 | no = 10 | abstain = | result = rejected | comment = The community raised some issues. See the follow-up proposal. }}
for 10 votes for, 2 against and no abstentions. It produces
Voting on this proposal has been closed.
It was rejected with 2 votes for and 10 votes against.
The community raised some issues. See the follow-up proposal.
