让用户在投票进行中添加更多投票选项

How about letting users suggest/add more poll options while the poll is running? Then we could run polls like this:

The UX could be made quite simple, just a radio button with an empty input field below the other options.

This is generally a bad idea:

  • adding items to a poll means they will be added late and won’t get many votes

  • this is fundamentally unfair to all voters; what if you realize you need to change your vote due to new poll options?

  • you can end up with dozens of voting options which is overwhelming

If you really need an open poll, first start a topic gathering poll option feedback as in “what options should be in our poll?”, let that run for a day or two, then gather all the suggested options (within reason, plus consolidation) into a new poll topic.

Just imagine the shenanigans, if an option can be added just before closing:

Yes, we include him in the election poll but, of course, nobody voted for him.

Polls look easy but, unless they are social media click-bait, they do require some planning and consultation.

I have several polls on the go and they all have failings because of unexpected conditions. Mainly they are about software use so the options have to be whittled down based on market research.

Many are annual polls so selecting the options often requires a one month rehearsal in December.

I always provide notes on why options have been chosen and post any ideas for improvement next time.

如果你仍然需要它。
我也需要这个,我目前正在尝试一个外部工具,这当然有其缺点,与内部功能相比。

我同意 @codinghorror 的观点,这通常是个坏主意,也不是一个好的默认设置。

但在头脑风暴的情况下,作为投票的一个特殊高级选项,这可能会非常方便。

@jomaxro 提到,包括 Google Docs 在内的许多现有投票产品都支持这种可选模式。

我非常喜欢这个功能。它支持头脑风暴类型的场景,也支持投票创建者疏忽了某些情况。它对于“意见箱”类型的投票也很有用。

我见过“为什么这是个坏主意”的帖子,我也理解“先讨论再创建静态投票”的建议,但恕我直言,你们错了。我在其他社区使用过类似的开放式投票,并取得了巨大成功。是的,后面的选项会得到较少的投票,但这没关系。我们不是在选举国家领导人——我只是想从论坛用户那里收集一些想法。

限制每个用户添加一个建议是合理的。

当然,也应该有禁用用户添加选项的选项。

在创建投票时将其作为一项选项绝对是个好主意。我建议添加一个类别选项,用于在启用了组选项的类别中进行设置。例如:所有人、TL 或特定组(例如 Staff)。

为了类别安全,最好有一个可选的设置,用于“仅投票”类别设置。例如:查看/投票,无回复或创建。

我刚刚试用了这个:

总的来说,我非常喜欢这个功能,适用于创建“最喜欢的食物”等列表的情况……

当风险极低且不太重要时,动态投票会很有用,可以避免在第一次尝试时就必须完美设置投票选项。

@probus 我将此标记为已完成,因为现在有了动态投票的功能。尽管如此,用户界面并非完全是你建议的 UI。
