== Voting instructions and FAQ ==
=== IMPORTANT - Test your browser settings ===
 
The voting link '''(to be sendsent on the 5th of December)''' will lead to a secure web page listing each candidate in random order and allowing you to rank the candidates in order of preference.
 
'''If you do not see the names of the candidates on the page linked from the voting email:'''
* '''<font color="blue">Please make sure that you have Javascript enabled. Disable any plugins that block content (like Decentraleyes or uBlock Origin)</font>'''. Otherwise the list of the candidates ''(or the "accept"/"reject" options)'' will not be visible and you will send an empty vote.''
* '''You will be able to test your browser settings by visiting a sandbox voting page to be linked from here''', where you should see a list of OpenStreetMap editors (randomised each time you load the page). Use the same browser settings when you proceed to vote for the elections. The sandbox page will be only for testing purposes: the vote button does not work and votes on the OSM editors will not be not counted.
