I would prefer that we have a quick discussion on articles, provisions, or the ordering of things before any editing. Just to make it a little easier: for example, I don't much like the changed text for the tasks of the ME, but I would like others' opinions before I would change it back to what I originally wrote.

Number the Sections and Articles
Thanks, Martin, for numbering the Articles. I think this will help considerably while we continue the cleanup and later when Citizens are able to reference sections and articles by number. D. Matt Innis 00:02, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, thanks to Martin! To everyone, please use permalinks nonetheless when citing specific sections, as we do not yet know how the numbering will evolve. --Daniel Mietchen 00:12, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Daniel, do you do this by clicking the permalink link in the toolbox to the left and then reference the section or article? D. Matt Innis 00:17, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, click the permalink link and then on the relevant section in the TOC, which gives permalinks of this sort. --Daniel Mietchen 00:23, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Excellent, thanks, Daniel! D. Matt Innis 00:32, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, click the permalink link and then on the relevant section in the TOC, which gives permalinks of this sort. --Daniel Mietchen 00:23, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

Simple Majority Vote to change text
I suggest that if anyone wants to change text, they be allowed to. If there is a challenge, then each shall be able to write three sentences in defense of their position followed by a simple majority vote with Yay, Nay or Abstain. In the event of tie, the (original) text remains.
Are there any objections to these guidelines? D. Matt Innis 00:09, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- If each vote comes with a permalink, then that works for me. --Daniel Mietchen 00:19, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry, the addition of "original" above makes it confusing now. Does this refer to the text of the current official draft page or to the text defined by the permalink? I would go for the latter. --Daniel Mietchen 00:27, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
- Good question. How about:
- Edits can continue as any normal collaboration would progress, with several compromise versions if necessary, but if there is a conflict, then two versions will be presented on this talk page and a simple majority will prevail with a tie reverting to Peter's version.
- Does that work for everyone? D. Matt Innis 00:45, 10 July 2010 (UTC)
