AVID:Requests for Comment/Define Policies for Admin Intervention in RfCs

Define Policies for Staff Intervention in RfCs
Recently, in the AVID Discord, the Wiki and Discord staff have been discussing the way RfCs are handled in certain outcomes where the Staff team may need to intervene. These scenarios could include things like silly RfCs being proposed or when RfCs come out as a tie. Since we currently have no procedures for this, we think it is time some guidelines are made for Staff to follow to keep things fair.

Currently, these policies has been proposed:
 * In the event of a tie, the Staff team will take a vote based on whether or not they think the RfC would be of benefit to the Wiki. It will then Pass or Fail based on the admin consensus. We can successfully implement this due to the current community-elected officials being a lot more impartial than past staff teams.
 * Push notifications on the Discord are implemented whenever a new RfC is proposed to encourage more users to vote which will minimise the amount of cases Staff will need to intervene on.

Having spoken with the Wiki staff, it was suggested that an RfC was made for the community to define these policies (and make comments on the two initially proposed) so that they can have their say on how staff handle these scenarios.

Initially, only Comments will be taken to allow the community to propose and expand upon any ideas they might have. Once this RfC has closed, a new RfC will be created to allow users vote for the policies they'd like to see implemented.
