== Naming ==
[[User:Psephomancy]], now I see why you were eager to use Categories as names. I remember [[User:Homunq]] believed pretty strongly that we should start calling them "Voting systems" rather than "Electoral systems". But "[[wikipedia:electoral system|electoral system]]" won on Wikipedia, and I'm guessing that's the mainstream academic name. "Electoral system" makes '''way''' more sense to me as a name.
 
Regardless of what we decide to rename the [[Voting system]] article to, I think we should make that article the main article for this category, and only have a brief category description here, in a style similar to Wikipedia. But category renames are such a pain to do, I'm happy with leaving [[:Category:Voting methods]] in its current location. Thoughts? -- [[User:RobLa|RobLa]] ([[User talk:RobLa|talk]]) 23:55, 12 April 2020 (UTC)
