 * Mofference results:
 * 1) Grae and Imp will come up with changes to the welcome template. Any objections should be left on a talk page they will specify. CT will not be created, but specifics will be worked out by the aforementioned Grae and Imp.
 * 2) Admin age exception: contributors under 18 who want to become admins must have made valuable contributions for 2 years before being RFA'd. This sets an effective age floor at 15.
 * 3) The interested parties will create new search icons, remove old bad ones, and in general work their will on icons. . . .from a SH page coming soon, probably.
 * 4) Mr./Ms SW are staying. Their presence in sitenotice is not.
 * 5) Absent admins will be contacted after 4 months of absence. They will be warned of impending removal of their power after 5 months of absence with no communication. After six months of not hearing from a given absent admin, they will lose their adminship via Wikia staff removal. And showing up in #wookieepedia does not count as contribution to the website.
 * 6) No consensus on making civility a policy.
 * 7) Comments on the Mofference agenda prior to the Mofference will be reverted and/or the user leaving comments will be reminded to save their thought for the Mofference. Save the keystrokes for the meeting.
 * 8) Comic quotes will be limited to italics only for emphasis.
 * 9) This phrase will be added to Wookieepedia:Consensus: "After one week from the start of voting on an issue, if the votes overwhelmingly support one option, the thread may be closed early."
 * 10) Plating color will be added to droid infoboxes.

 * 1) Postponed sector capitalization issue until Essential Atlas.
 * 2) Enochf's proposal approved, with the corollary that quotes must have six months minimum in between their appearance on the Main Page.
 * 3) *Proposal is: Be it resolved that a QOTD can be renominated, providing that the vote threshold be raised. Whereas a first-time QOTD requires a total of +10, a second-time QOTD would require a higher total, a third-time QOTD higher still. My suggestion is that the vote threshold be raised by +5 for every time: +15 for a second appearance, +20 for third, etc. An interval of +3 might also be acceptable. I'll go with the consensus, assuming there's agreement on the renomination system.
 * 4) *What constitutes a renominated quote will be somewhat broad. A dialogue which includes a previous QOTD, but expands on it will be considered a renomination. Also, vice versa, a quote that has been included in a previous QOTD dialogue will also be considered a renomination. The nominator is free and encouraged to rewrite the tagline and is also free to inject their own [bracketed sections] describing action; the quote itself must remain verbatim from the source material.
 * 5) WP:DASH is now official policy.
 * 6) Succession boxes will be revamped per Fiolli's proposal.
 * 7) The policy outlined in Forum:CT Archive/Single issue voters will now apply to Mofferences. I.e., one must have 50 main space edits in order to attend. Results posted by Atarumaster88  Jedi_Order.svg ( Talk page ) 16:31, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
