Publish:policy

The printable version is no longer supported and may have rendering errors. Please update your browser bookmarks and please use the default browser print function instead.

The Publish policy in the Publish Wiki is stricter than the Research Wiki and way stricter than Develop Wiki because:

the actual output has to be quite short and fit as the Consumerium buying signal on any terminal even a worn device
serious liability is involved for the Consumerium Governance Organization, especially for red lights; see Publish:governance and language versus liability
translation - a high overhead activity - is required
friendly retail will want to be able to rely on what is displayed and will not want it to offend anyone
unrighteous green lights will be very profitable - and funded trolls will be highly motivated to get the system to output them

See wikis for the relationship between Publish and Research.

The Publish:administrator guidelines will need to reflect the concerns of good general politically-aware administrator guidelines and have specific instructions:

to block IP
to delete page - note this actually moves pages to Research Wiki - see Research:governance
to undelete page - note this actually restores page from the current Research Wiki version probably after correction
to protect page
to revert page - note ad hominem revert is not allowed since the operational distinction that matters is legal, balance of probabilities not beyond a reasonable doubt
etc.
etc.
