Line 6: === Election Methods === There has been an increasing awareness in many parts of the world of the effect that different [[Voting system\|election methods]] (voting systems, voting methods, etc; this site uses these words interchangeably) have on the quality and timbre of elections and democracy. For example, there are movements for [[proportional representation~~]], [[government formation~~]], [[Approval voting]], [[Score voting]], [[instant-runoff voting]], and [[Condorcet method\|Condorcet methods]]. This site gives you a guide to what these things are, on pages categorized as follows: [[:Category:Advocacy\|'''Advocacy''']] is for descriptions about real-world reform: organizations, legislation, lobbying, and arguments for choosing one reform over another. [[:Category:Elections\|'''Elections''']] is for articles that analyze real or hypothetical elections and examine their properties and outcomes. [[:Category:Forms of government\|'''Forms of government''']] is the level "above" election methods: Representative vs direct democracy, government structure and [[government formation\|formation]], etc. [[:Category:Voting mechanics\|'''Voting mechanics''']] deals with real-world implementation details, such as paper ballots and electronic voting machines. *[[:Category:Voting methods\|'''Voting methods''']], the main focus of this wiki, describes specific methods for selecting between various choices, their implementation details and features.
