Editing Consensus

'''Consensus''' has a range of definitions from [[unanimity]] to various levels of [[majority]].

Since there must be one matter or [[issue]] being debated, any consensus begins from a '''sympathetic point of view''' with the [[power structure]] that decides it exists or that (at least) it is time for [[debating]] and [[voting]].  A [[dissensus]] may begin from the assertion that the concept is not worth debating or discussing - but of course it cannot be ignored if those debating it ([[sysop]]s) will make a decision that affects also the [[trolls]].

Within the frame of any one decision:

[[Unanimity minus two]] has a certain advantage as a level for use in a [[wiki]].  It may become the standard level for most decisions of the [[Consumerium Governance Organization]], simply because it reflects what goes on in an wiki [[revert duel]] so perfectly.

See [[w:consensus]] and especially [[w:consensus decision making]] for a deep discussion of advantages and disadvantages of various levels of consensus depth.
