Simple English

The Simple English Wikipedia will have short articles on all of the glossary items, using at most 2000 words.

We should link to those, not to the Wiktionary or Full English Wikipedia ones, for the following reasons:

It is far more likely that a short limited-vocabulary article will suit our purposes better than a long one in a 10,000 word (or worse) vocabulary.

Translated versions will more and more be based on the Simple English ones, and we want Consumerium Languages to be at least as extensive as Wikipedia languages eventually

All Consumerium Concepts should be well enough defined in Simple English for anyone who speaks English as a second language (only) to be able to contribute on an equal footing with native speakers. If the concepts cannot be defined in this way, they are probably wrong. There is nothing like simplicity to uncover errors and assumptions.

Consumerium Contracts (sort of a social contract around which social capital or reputation collects) form the basis of factions, so they must also be easy to understand, which means writing them in Simple English as well.
