This vote is now over but is retained here for reference
The vote for template standardisation ended Sunday 1 May 2005 at 23:59 (UTC). When voting the primary consideration was the design and layout of the template – the exact text was to be debated upon individually after a winner was chosen.
You could vote for as many or as few candidates as you wished and the winner was chosen by approval voting – if only one submission gets over 75% it will be chosen, otherwise there would have been a run-off for the top candidates. You may have supported a candidate with a specific condition if, with a minor alteration, you would have found it acceptable.
A simple comparison page was also made to show all of the submissions.
