Forum:Voting policy and main infobox images

On some character articles, such as Harry Potter and Tom Riddle, disputes on the images used in the infobox have resulted in votes being held to settle the matter. From then on, the image is prohibited from being changed until a new vote is called. However, to my knowledge there is no existing policy to say when it would be alright for a new vote to be called. Conceivably, a user could call for another vote right after the previous one, which would unnecessarily clutter up the discussion pages and lead to animosity between users who might frequently abuse the privelege.

I propose setting a time frame, perhaps one month, after a vote on matters like this ends before a new vote can be called. I'd like to know if anybody else feels this is necessary, or if there are any other voting-related matters besides infobox pictures in which setting a time-frame might be necessary.
