Proposed by Applejuicefool 09:43, 21 November 2006 (EST).

1. A player may nominate a player for the title and position "Supreme Grammarian" at any time, unless the current Supreme Grammarian has held that position for a continuous period fewer than 7 days immediately prior to the present date. In the latter case, no "Supreme Grammarian" nominations may be made.

2. To nominate a player for "Supreme Grammarian," a player must:

1. Create a page titled "Supreme Grammarian Nomination X+1" where X is the number of the previous Supreme Grammarian Nomination. The first such nomination shall be titled "Supreme Grammarian Nomination 1".
2. List on that page the name of the player to be nominated.
3. Create an appropriate discussion page for the nomination, with Summary, Debate, and Voting sections.
4. Link the nomination page to the Nomicapolis Main Page and to the Proposals page.

3. The nomination will then be debated and voted upon as if it were a rule change proposal.

4. If the nomination passes, the current Supreme Grammarian, if any, will be removed from that position and the nominated player will become Supreme Grammarian.

5. The player designated as "Supreme Grammarian" shall have the following powers and responsibilities:

1. The Supreme Grammarian shall examine all rules in the ruleset for grammar and spelling errors.
2. Upon finding grammar and spelling errors in the ruleset, the Supreme Grammarian shall fix them. Rules so amended retain their old rule numbers.
3. The Supreme Grammarian shall create a page with a list of all rules containing grammar and spelling errors, along with the corrections he or she made to those rules. This list shall be linked to the Nomicapolis wiki's main page.
4. If any player disagrees with the Supreme Grammarian's corrections, he or she may dispute the corrections on the correction list's discussion page.
5. The Supreme Grammarian's corrections which are disputed automatically become rule change proposals and are voted on in the normal way. The Supreme Grammarian shall assign these proposals proper numbers, create proper pages for them, and link them appropriately.
6. When a new proposal is made, the Supreme Grammarian shall examine it for grammar and spelling errors.
7. If the Supreme Grammarian deems that a proposal contains grammar and/or spelling errors, he shall post a corrected version of the proposal in the "Debate" section of that rule's discussion page. Such corrected version shall be clearly labeled SUPREME GRAMMARIAN.
8. If no player disputes the Supreme Grammarian's corrected version of the proposal before the end of the debate period, the Supreme Grammarian's version is the proposal voted on and enacted if the vote carries.
9. If one or more players dispute the Supreme Grammarian's corrected version, then the Supreme Grammarian's corrected version in the debate becomes a claim of improper proposal. That claim must be adjudicated in the normal way before the proposal may be voted upon.

6. The Supreme Grammarian may resign the position at any time. If the Supreme Grammarian ever becomes inactive, he or she is considered to have resigned.
