Talk:Majority criterion

Moving utilitarian discussion

Dr. Edmonds, I moved the utilitarianism comparison information you added to the majority article. BetterVotingAdvocacy (talk) 02:19, 14 May 2020 (UTC)

Any other names?

The majority criterion is badly misnamed. The name sounds like it means the Condorcet criterion, when it's much weaker and honestly... barely matters? Heck, it's basically the same as saying the system is ordinal. Calling Condorcet "majority-rule criterion" or "majority principle" is common in the social choice literature, which makes it very easy to confuse. —Closed Limelike Curves (talk) 17:42, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
