Quote from a post I made in a blog that Zero deleted: You are overstepping your bounds, Zero. If staff could do this at any point, Wikia would become an autocracy. However, Wikias were designed to be a limited democracy, akin to the U.S.'s form. It isn't the staff that has power, it is the community. You have the duty to honor the vote as it stands. The job of staff is not to manage every day workings of the people, but instead, you are the police of the Wikia. Police do not create laws, they enforce them. Until you understand this, this Wikia will be a corrupt place, where people are scared of retribution at any point, because you force it that you have all the power, and they have none.

You can rectify this situation. Setup guidelines. IE: a vote cannot be passed unless either side has at least 5+ votes. If the vote is 5 for, 3 against, it would pass. However, if it was 3 for, 1 against, the vote would be null and void, regardless.

In summation, you are enforcing corruption, whether you mean it or not. This needs to change.
