== What kind of information Consumerium plans to offer consumers on businesses? ==
== Licensing ( most urgent! ) ==
I think Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License is a natural choice but I'm not sure. Surely it would make little sense to license the [[voting|votes]] so keep them copyright of the user i.e. have the templates used for quick voting will be under CC-A-SA but the actual votes are not under GFDL or CC-A-SA.. Right ? This can be done by loading a dump into a temp database and deleting everything in the User-namespace and redumping.

== Changing the name of the effort from Consumerium to Consumium ==
The [[lowest troll]] has unilaterally decided it's better to drop the letters "er" to arrive at the effort being named Consumium, instead of Consumerium and has registerd the domain http://consumium.org to be used for the [[Implementation Wiki]] meanwhile the [[Development Wiki]] ( this wiki ) may remain at it's usual http://develop.consumerium.org/wiki/ address or be moved to develop.consumium.org , this is an open question of low urgency and importance.

Not sure if sub-articleing is a good idea. using mediawiki's [[Special:Categories|categories]] instead to provide nested structures. Having subarticleing will affect search engine scoring differently from using categories.
