| Who '''We''' are at '''Consumerium''' is always changing. People drop in, drop out, get invited in, and sometimes even get [[driven off by trolls]] (in very nasty cases where those who perform [[sysop vandalism]] or other sins elsewhere, then show up here!). | | Who '''We''' are at '''Consumerium''' is always changing.

| Any statement about '''who we are''' thus must be examined by every participant, so they can qualify, edit, object, or change it. See [[subject-object problem]] and [[God's Eye View]] for a more general presentation of the issues involved. [[Consumerium]] should be as careful with use of the word '''We''' as it is with mention of [[Consumerium:Itself]]. Please link any use of the word "we" meaning "we who edit or are assumed to read or use [[Consumerium Services]]" to this page with the following link: | | Any statement about '''who we are''' thus must be examined by every participant, so they can qualify, edit, object, or change it. |

| It's another way to make sure only [[Consumerium:consensus]] is expressed here, and it frees us to [[Consumerium:be bold|be bold]] in making claims.
