Beta sites do not automatically make it to a full site. There are requirements we have to meet.

See: What should the criteria be for Stack Exchange sites to leave beta?

Where can one see how the users here are doing at fulfilling the requirements?

I had to tag this with something so used discussion.

Think of this as more of a nice to know and bookmark in you browser before you forget.

This question was posted

Leaving Private Beta & Initial Pro-Tem Moderator Election!

and then this was given a close vote asking if that answered this question.

Well of course not. Moving from private beta to public beta is still beta.

enter image description here

Often after the election is over and long forgotten it is hard to find the election page, so here it is

Proof Assistants 2022 Moderator Election

Note: When a site moves from private beta to public beta the amount rep needed for most privileges changes. While it takes more rep than private beta for many privileges it is still not as much rep as needed when out of beta.

Reputation for privileges in private beta.

Unexpected bonus when visiting https://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/126242

Note: The rep is added to the the Area 51 account, not the Proof Assistants account. I wish it were the other way. :(

Day 47

2022 Community Moderator Election starts in 1 hour.

enter image description here

When the clock is less than an hour it switches to minutes.

enter image description here

When the clock is less than a minute it switches to seconds. How thoughtful.

enter image description here

There were 6 candidates but one dropped out. Did not know that was possible. One user wanted to run but could not because they were suspended. (ref). The candidates are listed randomly (click browser refresh and watch the list change).

For each candidate running there is an option to see their reviews and meta posts.

enter image description here

When the election begins you will receive a notification in your in box.

enter image description here

The ballot looks like

If you click Learn more on the ballot you will see

After you leave the page you will earn a badge for voting.

enter image description here

The vote tally does not update during the election so don't look for such while the election is running.

To know who voted check out the Constituent badge page.

Since it requires 150 reputation points to vote, at the start of the election only 126 users are eligible to vote.

The election page also has a count down clock.

enter image description here

The election has three phases (Nomination, Primary, Election) and the second phase (Primary) will be skipped if there are less than 30 candidates. However if one goes to the Primary tab of the election the vote buttons are present but voting is not allowed on that page.

    $\begingroup$ Questions per day has continued to fall, and is now at 1.4, eclipsing visits per day (which has been rising, maybe due to the election) as our stat with the highest ratio of desired to actual value. $\endgroup$

I followed the last three Private Beta sites religiously (Drones and Model Aircraft, Matter Modeling, and Cardano). ProofAssistants is doing very well.

I gave a very detailed comparison of some of those sites' first days in Private Beta, here.

Overall, everything has been going as well as expected here at Proof Assistants, and this is with far less participation from CMs compared to the other sites I mentioned here.

If we continue like this, I'm fairly certain we'll be approved to enter Public Beta!

Keep up the voting on good content, and editing of poor content: Previous sites have been required to have 100 high-quality questions in order to enter Public Beta, so let's keep up the good work and Vote Early, Vote Often.
