:: I think "voting" as a term can be allowed in many contexts (and to imply that I'm proposing a rename of [[Equal Vote Coalition]] is a [[wikipedia:straw man|straw man]]), but do you think the people who argued for the "Voting system" to "Electoral system" on English Wikipedia were wrong? I don't think they were; hence, why I think "electoral" should be preferred over "voting" to describe [[electoral system]]s on Electowiki. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 03:34, 22 April 2020 (UTC) |

::: I wasn't straw manning you; IIRC, EVC prefers "voting" over "electoral", so I was saying they should be able to write "voting method" rather than "electoral method" in something like the STAR voting article. I don't have enough information to judge whether electoral or voting is a better term, so I leave that to you. I'd just mention that in my limited experience, I've seen more uses of "voting" than "electoral", most likely owing to simplicity.
