== Needs Truncation ==
The article erroneously claims compliance with Minimal Defense requires voting methods to permit voters to truncate their rankings. There is an alternative: permit voters to express indifference (at least at the bottom of their ranking). In other words, a voter may rank multiple candidates as equal to each other. For example, B > A=C. (Note: I'm not advocating that indifference be permitted ONLY at the bottom. I don't yet have an opinion either way.) [[User:SEppley|SEppley]] 15:48, 22 November 2012 (PST)
 
== Strong/Weak Minimal Defense ==
 
I assume score/approval/etc. pass if you drop the "or equal" (to create a weak minimal defense criterion)? —[[User:Closed Limelike Curves|Closed Limelike Curves]] ([[User talk:Closed Limelike Curves|talk]]) 19:32, 18 March 2024 (UTC)
