oops! Criterion 1 looked out of place to me. A long sentence whereas the others were a couple of words. Then I looked at what you had done. You (Dan K) have created pages with the word Criterion as part of the page name! I think that that is a logical and/or structural mistake, IMHO. I'm too tired to explain better now, it has just struck me as I was about to call it a night. Wegerje 21:07, 16 Mar 2005 (PST)

Actually, I imported pages from Wikipedia with page names like Favorite Betrayal criterion, monotonicity criterion, etc. I created headers with the word "Criterion" in them on this page. Is that what you meant? By the way, I think we should define a CSS class for election model notation in Mediawiki:monobook.css, then use it consistently. What do you think?

I'm all for style. I wanted a real typeface for the critera list rather than the typewriter font that it was coming out as. So just point me to the style book and I'll follow.
As for criterion/criteria. Ok, I looked up "Generalized Condorcet criterion" on google and it appears to be common usage. It struck me strangely, but that's my lack of education. Wegerje 09:29, 17 Mar 2005 (PST)
