[[The Consumerium Exchange]], some complain, is a misleading name for this facility, which is about '''expressing opinions and support or the lack of for the expressed opinions'''. It does not translate well at all - hence the new working title and design approach. We now call it the '''opinion wiki'''. | |||
It will be a [[large public wiki]] with the special problems of that type of communication. Including choosing a good name. | |||
As mentioned in [[Campaign#Campaign Management|Campaign]], campaign management may be best organized by wiki. This would be simple and straightforward for the campaigners. It would require only a low-end browser to contribute to the [[semantic web of views]]. No fixed email address would be required. Many client software variations might work. | As mentioned in [[Campaign#Campaign Management|Campaign]], campaign management may be best organized by wiki.

*[[Consumerium Troll|Troll]] - a group of edits (not users) that Users think all represent some single point of view, maybe one person, or many co-operating, and which anyone can claim to be adding to - a sort of mask or faction. So there might be no actual User: named "Communist" but there might be a "Troll" by that name, and "Communist" opinions could be classified as part of that virtual personality, no matter who wrote them. Like a role account only what belongs in it is defined after the fact. They can't vote, nor bet - but they can have all the opinions they want. The main use of this is to find out if any Users share so much style or opinion with a known troll profile, that they are probably the same person with many votes or accounts. | *[[Consumerium Troll|Troll]] - a group of edits (not users) that Users think all represent some single point of view, maybe one person, or many co-operating, and which anyone can claim to be adding to - a sort of mask or faction.

*[[Consumerium | *[[Consumerium VirtualGroup|VirtualGroup]] - must not conflict with names of real-world entities. Instead of being made out of users, it is made out of opinions or out of [[Consumerium Troll]]s. Another name could be "Legion of Trolls" or "Troll Pack", and the leader can be a [[Trollherd]]. | ||
*[[Campaign]] - preferably descriptive names, and preferably recognizable to people doing real world campaigns say in [[NGO]]s. | *[[Consumerium Campaign|Campaign]] - preferably descriptive names, and preferably recognizable to people doing real world campaigns say in [[NGO]]s. | ||
