: [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] My main point for adding this to the main page was to get awareness in the hopes that other would add to the page. After all this is the purpose of a wiki page. A lot of the reform community spends time on these topics and to have a list of topics for reform without listing this is an oversight. Given that I wrote the current content I wanted a pass from others. Also, my expertise is the Westminster system I was hoping that somebody with expertise in different presidential and parliamentary systems could expand. The other pages I put it beside are [[proportional representation]], [[Approval voting]], [[Score voting]], [[instant-runoff voting]], and [[Condorcet method|Condorcet methods]]. None of these are at the high standard you claim is required but are arguably better than the Government formation page. I'll do a pass to make sure that there is nothing which is outside of standard discussions on this topic. To be clear there is nothing that is opinion and to call it an essay is a little weird. There are two subsections about the common reform efforts. I only favour one of them. --[[User:Dr. Edmonds|Dr. Edmonds]] ([[User talk:Dr. Edmonds|talk]]) 21:36, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
 
:: 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.
