When no due process exists, there is usually said to be no justice, no democracy, and no rights.  These things are all thought in Western philosophy to proceed directly from due process.

Usually, due process includes and is served by an [[adversarial process]] where parties present their cases in a neutral form and stick to the facts.  ''See [[142.X.X.X/Tim_Starling]] for one such adversarial presentation, which speaks to the need for [[faction]] structure and strict control over the [[developer]]s whose power can overrule even the [[sysop power structure]] and corrupt [[wiki management]].''

The [[Content Wiki]] will have more need for such a process than [[Opinion Wiki]], since its content directly alters the [[consumerium buying signal]].  However, even for opinions, there is a need for a significantly higher degree of due process than is applied in most [[large public wiki]]s.  Failure to put it in place leads to [[usurper]] activity, [[framer]] tactics, and eventually [[cease and desist letter]]s that there is no clear [[paper trail]] to answer.

All of this will collapse [[Consumerium Services]] in a hurry, so a clearly-documented accountable trail that shows how things alter the buying signal is critical.  Probably it will not be complete and rigorous until there is a fully [[Transparent Consumerium]].
