What about council candidates answering a set of questions in their user wiki pages, all linked from an elections page? Didn't we have this in the past?
The 5 council members will be elected by the community. Elections are open to community members with an account over 3 months old and karma of 10 or more. Candidates can be anyone with a karma of 100 or above. A list of eligible candidates will be published a few weeks before the elections. Based on this, a list of candidate declarations is put together. Changes to the process require a referendum, a list of community referenda can be found on the above page.
