'''Voting''' refers to any system of making [[multiple choice]] collectively - it is typically used in [[election]]s to form a [[government]] which must make binding decisions that affect everyone, or elect a board (or sometimes even the management) of an enterprise. | '''Voting''' refers to any system of making [[multiple choice]] collectively - it is typically used in [[election]]s to form a [[government]] which must make binding decisions that affect everyone, or elect a board (or sometimes even the management) of an enterprise. | ||
In democratic elections the voting is '''closed''' and the [[vote counting]] is '''open'''. | |||
Consumerium has the opposite system where '''voting is [[open voting|open]]''' and vote counting is '''[[closed counting|closed]] and tunable''' which is possible because there is no requirement to reach a consensus like there is when electing elected representatives of the people in democratic elections. | |||
The voting pages are most obviously "noindex, nofollow" ( stops search engines from indexing ) and furthermore copyright of the wiki user i.e. '''not copylefted'''. If someone wants to publish vote sets in another namespace this surely will be allowed or even recommended. ( If NGOs want to publish vote sets it's sort of the revival of the [[indirect vote]]. ) | |||
