A WikiVote is just a vote taken via a wiki. Some issues:
- can you change a vote after you make it?
- Sure. You can remove your vote simply by removing it from your User:UserName/MyVotes page perhaps to switch to support an another more credible, better-argued campaign.
- which w:voting system should you use? for what purposes?
- The question is already anwsered elsewhere, though disagreeing views are welcome. The current proposition is a one-to-one vote: You have one WikiVote per issue. A more interesting question is how and by who is defined what is an "issue". Obivious issues are a company, a brand, a product and a product group so we should start with these basics and then expand.
- how is w:user authentication performed? By just accounts and passwords, or by IP number, or what?
- The existence of multiple levels of authentication is the basic approach, but the details are yet quite open.
