It’s OK to be curious! Asking questions is the biggest deciding factor on who is a moderator or not. Be sure to ask the candidates a lot of questions, either on Discord or on Message walls. If you want questions to be private, go to Discord. If you don’t mind, ask on a message wall. Candidates are usually more active on message walls.
 * -|Questions == Asking Questions =

= Questions to ask = Here are some sample questions to ask!
 * 1) What will you do as a moderator?
 * 2) What rules do you plan to implement once you are moderator?
 * 3) Why did you run for moderator?
 * 4) How will you make the wiki a better place?
 * 5) Will be more /less active once you are moderator?
 * 6) How will you interact with your fellow wiki users?

There’s so many questions! Ask away! Before it’s too late!

= Why do we ask questions? =

We ask questions because we tend to think that “Hey, since this user is *this or that*, I’m going to vote for them”. You should choose who should be moderator about what they would do as a moderator instead of experience, edits, or feelings. That is why we ask questions, to get to know the other side better. We ask questions to determine a final answer. I highly recommend that you vote for the one that answers your questions the best. Us, candidates are happy to answer any questions!
