English Language & Usage's fourth moderator election has come to a close, the votes have been tallied, and the 2 new moderators are:
They'll be joining the existing crew shortly — please thank them for volunteering, and share your assistance and advice with them as they learn the ropes!
Please join me in thanking simchona who is stepping down.
For details on how the voting played out, you can download the election results here, or view a summary report online.
Welcome to our new moderators!
Farewell to simchona and thank you for your service!
And finally, a big thank you to all the candidates. It is a scary thing to put yourself out there like that and you did it! We had a lot of good choices this election and I hope you will consider running again in a future election.
Let me congratulate you guys. We had so many good candidates and, not surprisingly, you made it in what was a keen competition. You're both great contributors and have been around long enough for us to feel sure that your attitudes as moderators will always be tempered with reason and tolerance. Good luck.
