CZ:Charter/Things to address

This page and its parent page are dedicated to drafting a charter for Citizendium and should only be edited by those eight Citizens elected to the drafting Committee. Other Citizens, please comment on the dedicated thread at the Citizen Forum. Non-Citizens can comment in a separate thread at the non-Member Forum. The drafting period shall end when November 12, 2009 is over all around the globe.

Starting this page to place some of the things that we can address, or at least provide a way to address these things, in the charter. This may include things that should be institutionalized but not directly in the charter, which are collected at CZ:Charter drafting/Things to address but not in charter.

1. dispute resolution concerning content, behaviour or technical matters
2. The judicial process
3. Who gets to decide about editorship? Ed council
4. Who gets to decide about technical features, e.g. new subpage types? Ed Council
5. Quorum. What would be a sufficient mimimum number of members to be termed a 'quorum' on Citizendium?
6. Rights and responsibilities of each role (authors, editors, E-i-C, constables, etc.)
7. Checks and Balances on the powers of the Constabulary and Ed Council.
