{{ping|Philpope}}: based on [[User:Kristomun]]'s comment, it would seem that your new article ("[[Expanding Approvals Rule]]") should be merged with the "[[Bucklin Transferable Vote]]" article. Based on my cursory investigation (trying to map electowiki articles to [[English Wikipedia]] articles), it would seem that merging with "[[Proportionality for Solid Coalitions]]" may be appropriate. If I were feeling reckless, I'd just perform a sloppy merge of all three articles (and I may just do that). At a minimum, I believe that [[User:Philpope]] needs to put ''something'' on their user page, per [[User:RobLa/Welcome|my welcome letter]]. -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 04:30, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
This isn't a new article - someone else created it two and a half years ago. The wikipedia articles on 'Bucklin Voting' and 'Proportionality for Solid Coalitions' aren't particularly accurate and the latter omits references to a lot of important sources e.g. Dummet's Quota Borda System in 'Principles of Electoral Reform', Hill's sequential stv, gazeley's stv-edc, etc. EAR is a class of methods but the authors also specified a particular implementation of it which is definitely distinct from BTV. I'm not sure that BTV as defined by Quin and Stern is an implementation of EAR - will have to read their algorithm more closely. I appreciate it might not be appropriate to necessarily have separate pages for every single method. I tend to agree with your policy of trying to mirror wikipedia article structure but would like to have a discussion of whether what is currently on wikipedia currently is satisifactory or needs expanding. I have responded to your welcome message on my user page. [[User:Philpope|Philpope]] ([[User talk:Philpope|talk]]) 11:21, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
