Talk:Parliamentary government formation: Difference between revisions

(→‎Rename to "Government": it seems odd that we have Government formation with no Government)
Line 22:
:: I think there is some controversy to what you wrote. Some examples that I'd like to run through before any edits are made: "The most polarizing systems are Single Plurality Voting and Rank Voting so one might think that these would produce a good Prime Minister and opposition leader. " I think a lot of Condorcet advocates would pretty strongly disagree that "rank voting" is polarizing. "It is typically suggested that a form of Score Voting would be optimal since it has been established as the best system for single winner elections." I think it's easy to see the bias on this one; many people prefer FPTP or IRV. "In summary, the most common suggested replacement method of government formation is to have an Approval Vote for the Prime Minister." I'd simply want a source on this one.

::: [[User:BetterVotingAdvocacy|BetterVotingAdvocacy]] OK that was an oversight on my part. You are right, I forgot about you Condorcet people. I tried to lay out the debate as I have seen I go down many times. Condorset has never come up. When I wrote "Rank voting" I meant IRV. I'll write to some people and get them to add their various advocacy groups and chime in. I might have a bit of a Canadian bias. Please update as you see fit. This is how wiki pages should work. --[[User:Dr. Edmonds|Dr. Edmonds]] ([[User talk:Dr. Edmonds|talk]]) 03:15, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
 
== Rename to "Government" ==
 
It seems odd that we have a "[[Government formation]]" article here, but not a "[[Government]]" article. I would like to change that by doing the following:
 
# Rename "[[Government formation]]" to "[[Government]]"
# Move the [[English Wikipedia]] text that I copied to [[Government formation#Government]] to the article lede
# Move the current lede down into a new "Government#Formation" section
 
Thoughts? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 05:48, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
