This is _not_ normative. See it more as an investigation into the possibility to use a wiki to manage quite formal processes. | This is _not_ normative. See it more as an investigation into the possibility to use a wiki to manage quite formal processes. | ||
:including an [[audit]] to see if there is really some shenanigans going on | |||
This approach opens up lot's of new questions. Especially the vote classes are unclear now and that's not good. As I see it there seems to be more then two but less then three classes of votes if/when the [[WikiVote]] is implemented. [[Indirect Vote]]s are encapsylated in the WikiVotes, but the question of where are the [[Direct Vote]]s and how they could be trusted seems like a real integrity hazard, but actually they've been that way for a while --[[User:Juxo|Juxo]] 14:24, 13 Oct 2003 (EEST) | This approach opens up lot's of new questions.

:Best way to deal with the trust issue is to have a [[Consumerium Troll]] account for each untrusted or suspicious group of edits. For instance if you think every edit that mentions [[KitKat McFlurry]] is free advertising for the two companies that own those [[brand name]]s, then, you can link all such edits together into a common [[Troll:Sugar-coated spam]] account, and see if they are promoting other products bad for your teeth. If so they may be being paid by the Federation of Dentists, etc.. | |||
:A [[Role:]] account like [[User:Mediator]] (to deal with disputes) or [[User:Terminator]] (to figure out which trolls or users are really being paid to skew ratings one way, and get rid of them) could also exist. | |||
:The only difference between a [[Role:]] and a [[Troll:]] is that you associate an edit with a role before the fact, and with a troll only after it is made. But this is very important symmetry... |
