Maybe the article should just say in the text that it's a new concept, who invented it, and where it has been discussed so far? Some other articles do that. — [[User:Psephomancy|Psephomancy]] ([[User talk:Psephomancy|talk]]) 15:33, 17 December 2019 (UTC)

:[[User:Psephomancy]], thanks for the response here! Ok, I think I have a clearer idea about what to do, using the [[Vote Unitarity]] article as an example. Articles in the main namespace should fall into one of two categories:
:* '''Not-quite-Wikipedia''' - no banner needed. It needs to be almost up to [[w:WP:RELIABILITY|Wikipedia's reliability standards]] on many vectors: almost "[[w:WP:NPOV|NPOV]]", almost "[[w:WP:CITE|well-cited]]", almost "[[w:WP:NOTE|notable]]", not "[[w:WP:INDISCRIMINANTE|indiscriminate]]", and most importantly, on track to be something that Wikipedia would want in the not-TOO-distant future (e.g. five years from now).
:* '''Advocacy''' - banner required. These are the articles where only "friendly" edits are welcome. The talk page for the article needs to identify which Electowiki editors are part of the ad hoc friendly curation committee ''for that article''. I have a lot more thoughts about "Advocacy" category, but we should have that discussion elsewhere (maybe at [[User:RobLa/Advocacy draft policy]], if I get around to proposing something).
: Since [[User:Dr. Edmonds|Dr. Edmonds]] seems to consider [[Vote Unitarity]] to be in the "Not-quite-Wikipedia" category (correct, Dr. Edmonds?), then I say we go ahead and clean this one up. I may make a few changes to this myself (possibly starting with renaming the article to "[[Vote unitarity]]").
: [[User:Psephomancy]]: a couple of questions for you: 1. do you more-or-less agree with that taxonomy? If so, we should probably refine the idea over at [[Electowiki:Policy]]. 2. Assuming you agree with the taxonomy, you agree that [[Vote Unitarity]] seems to be in the "Not-quite-Wikipedia" category?
: [[User:Dr. Edmonds]], I'm leaning toward removing the banner from this article. But please help us get the full corpus of unbannered content in the main Electowiki namespace up to "Not-quite-Wikipedia" standards by helping us make sure that ''at least'' the stuff you're contributing is on track to becoming Wikipedia content in five years (-ish) by convincing Psephomancy and I by helping us get [[Vote Unitarity]] up to the "Not-quite-Wikipedia" standard that I'm laying out here. Does that sound reasonable? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 19:36, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
