Thanks to everyone who took part in nominations and for all your contributions to testing and team progress this year. 🎉 We will now elect two Test Team Representatives for the next term.

  • Who can vote: Test Team contributors only.
  • How many picks: You may select up to 2 nominees.
  • Voting period: Open for two weeks.

Eligibility & fairness checks (why we’re doing this)

Last year we encountered unusual voting activity and had to reset the poll. To keep things fair, learning from this experience, we’re adding light verification.

What we’ll ask on the form (and how we’ll use it):

  • Your WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/ profile URLURL A specific web address of a website or web page on the Internet, such as a website’s URL www.wordpress.org (to confirm you’re a Test contributor).
  • Your email (one vote per address; used only to prevent duplicates—votes will be kept private).

Thank you for helping us keep the process welcoming, transparent, and fair. 💙

👉 The poll will remain open for two weeks, until September 29, 00:00 UTC. After that, votes will be tallied and reps selected based on votes received.
