revisioned so that campaigns are all in Campaign-namespace
(here's the plan for Research Wiki structures for expressing opinions. it's not yet totally complete or completely sanity checked but i strongly feel this is the way to go)

For simplicitys sake in the begining '''only registered users get to vote on [[Campaign]]s''' and they do so by casting their [[Direct Vote]]s and [[Indirect Vote]] via subpages of their user-page ie. by [[WikiVote]] so for now nevermind what the above articles state about more complicated schemes for voting. Later on more inclusive voting systems may be introduced.

Linking to any [[Organisation:SomeOrganisation/SomeCampaignTheyAreRunning/Vote]] from [[User:SomeUser/votes]] will count as a direct vote. Note that you are allowed to vote only once for each [[Campaign]] [[Category]].

And... Yes I know there could be problems with [[Sock puppet]]s and yes we will develop some user parametrisable filter that weeds out likely sock puppets by number of edits and time registered and their ratio. The parameters are best left up to everyone to decide on their own as this makes vote rigging more difficult since it is not known what parameters people are using.

Virtual ad hoc organisations for running campaigns may be formed by at least two real or virtual organisations, virtual organisations is an ad hoc name for describing an entity that exists only within Consumerium. Suggestions for a better name (Wiki Group?) are welcome.

Campaign leader is the organisation that maintains the campaign and '''assumes responsibility for any claims made in the campaign''' thus the campaigns are in the form of [[Organisation:YourOrganisation/Campaigns/DescriptiveCampaignName]] where the first link to [[Entity:SomeEntity/Campaigns/Score]] (where score is an integer from Minus3 to Plus3). This first link is used to determine the [[target]] of the campaign and the score of the campaign.

It is yet unclear whether we should allow for multiple targets with different scores for each score where some target could receive a negative score and some other target could receibe a positive score.

[[Organisation:YourOrganisation/Campaigns/DescriptiveCampaignName/Vote]] must be properly set up to receive [[Direct Votes]] to gain more weight for the campaign.

All the indirect votes of the organisation running the campaign are automatically credited to their own campaigns thus you cannot vote for other campaigns in the same campaign category as the campaigns you are running.

Any Virtual Groups you join in with other organisations automatically get your votes in the categories they campaign in. It is up to organisations to make sure they aren't accidentally running multiple campaigns in one campaign category due to being part of virtual groups. This will be enforced.

Forming a virtual group with other organisations with stakes in some campaign is used to gain more weight for the campaign. The participants share the responsibility of campaign statements truthfullness and assume the legal liabilities that may follow. Failure to do so may lead to the campaign being retired to avoid [[Consumerium:Itself]] being sued.

Campaigns may or may not correspond with "real world" campaigns. Real world and "only Consumerium" campaigns may get different treatment/listing ie. they may be presented in separate listings.
