Merging with mono-raise

From what I understand, the mono-raise criterion and the "monotonicity criterion" are the same thing. Moreover, when I brought this up on EM list, folks there agreed.[1]. So, any problem with merging these? Can anyone help make it happen? -- RobLa (talk) 07:52, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

There are montonicity criteria (of which mono-raise is one), but when EM members refer to "the" monotonicity criterion (or just monotonicity), it's mono-raise. So "a monotonicity criterion" could be any of them, while "the monotonicity criterion" is mono-raise. Kristomun (talk) 18:37, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

We need a better example

I have an improved version of IRV that is monotonic in the example given. I would elect Center (the Condorcet winner). Can I claim that it is monotonic or just more often monotonic? (Is it still considered IRV? See the link on my user page). RalphInOttawa (talk) 14:54, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
