The discussions below were ''started'' on the year that they are listed under. The years are not yet in reverse chronological order, so the best place to start a new conversation is in the [[#2021]] section below.

=== Cleaning up categories ===
 
There are many different variants of the same category names.
Line 37 ⟶ 20:
So I'll re-categorize each page under "voting methods" and delete "voting systems" categories. [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 03:39, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
 
=== StructuredDiscussions ===
 
Should we use the [[mw:Extension:StructuredDiscussions|StructuredDiscussions]] extension for Talk pages? This wiki uses it, for reference: https://allthetropes.org/wiki/Talk:Main_Page
Line 48 ⟶ 31:
:: It looks like existing talk pages will be unchanged and [[mw:Extension:StructuredDiscussions#Migrating_existing_pages|need to be migrated]], which is good. — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 05:39, 12 February 2020 (UTC)
 
=== Search Engine Optimization ===
 
Is there anything we can do to raise this site in Google results? If I search for "Summability criterion", <code>wiki.electorama.com</code> is the first result, but <code>electowiki.org</code> isn't on the first 5 results pages at all. The first result actually points to Category:Voting system criteria, which is weird.
Line 117 ⟶ 100:
It's not possible to do the first method since that requires me to own both miraheze.org and electowiki.org and it seems like an obsolete method anyway. I don't think I have the power to do any of the others, either. — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 02:57, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

You can install http://einaregilsson.com/redirector/ to automatically redirect your browser from <code>wiki.electorama.com</code> or <code>electowiki.miraheze.org</code> to the new domain <code>electowiki.org</code>.
=== Template for mailing list posts ===
 
<pre>
It might be good to have a template to reference mailing list posts. Is there a unique ID for each post or something like that? — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]]&nbsp;([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 17:09, 9 February 2019 (UTC)
Redirect: *//wiki.electorama.com/*

Redirect: *//electowiki.miraheze.org/*
=== Help page ===
to: https://electowiki.org/$2
</pre>
 
Should probably have a Help page to explain the features that aren't present on Wikipedia, list the Wikipedia features that aren't present here, and link to Wikipedia for the things that are the same.

=== Meta-articles ===

:Hi [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]], a belated thank you for this list. I copied it over to [[User:RobLa/Electorama 2005 cleanup]], and I have the cleanup task on [[User:RobLa/TODO|my TODO list]] -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 00:46, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
 
=== Archiving off older discussions ===
 
I'm going to start archiving off older discussions. We don't have a bot framework to do it automatically yet, but I'll be copying things off to child articles much like the bots do on Wikipedia talk pages. I'm also going to be reordering these so that new stuff shows up on the bottom -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 01:04, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

=== Archiving by year ===
 
[[Category:Electowiki_caucus|1]]
I've changed the heading level of many of the headings above. We have conversations happening over multiple years with the setup we have right now. I think we should start each year as a clean slate, so I'm planning on manually archiving the conversations above. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 08:08, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
