Welcome
Hi,
Welcome to the new Electowiki! See User:RobLa and Electowiki:About for notes about the migration.
Let me know on my talk page if there's anything I can help with, if you know of any deleted articles on Wikipedia that could be resurrected here, etc.
This runs on Mediawiki, so it has a lot of the same features as Wikipedia, but is missing a few (like automatic citation generation) and has a few that Wikipedia doesn't (like support for inline YouTube videos). Images from Wikimedia Commons can be used directly without needing to be uploaded. Templates can also be transcluded from other wikis, though it's better to export and import them.
The wiki is 14 years old and has never had a ton of activity, so the goals/policies were never really solidified. Your input is welcome, especially on how to handle the separation of biased advocacy from neutral informative content (which are both welcome). See Electowiki:The caucus for the discussion topics and Electowiki:Policy. — Psephomancy (talk) 17:33, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

You forgot something
"as well as traditional Condorcet methods pass this abstract version of the criterion, while ."
while what?

and can you upload images like this so they don't get lost?

- I fixed both of them. The images I would've liked to have uploaded within the section "Demonstrating pairwise counting" itself, rather than off to the right side, but it should work well enough. BetterVotingAdvocacy (talk) 20:20, 6 January 2020 (UTC)
Building trust via proper introduction
User:BetterVotingAdvocacy, I really appreciate that you have become the most active editor on this wiki. The changes that you make are probably correct. Though really, I don't have time to make sense of many of the edits you make. When I see the "Recent changes" on this wiki completely dominated by edits that I don't fully understand, it makes me distrust the changes. When I look at your user page (at User:BetterVotingAdvocacy, it doesn't build confidence.
If you'd like to remain anonymous, I can respect that. But I think the combination of anonymity and velocity is potentially toxic to a healthy wiki community. Note that I say "potentially toxic". We can make it work (e.g. just like English Wikipedia has), but I'd appreciate your help. Could you make a better user page that helps us trust you more? For example, is your Twitter handle @BetterVoting? Are you "AssetVotingAdvocacy" on The Election Science forum? It's possible to build trust with an anonymous identity, but it requires a lot of work. -- RobLa (talk) 22:22, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
