== Living people ==

As of November 2019, we have a category ([[:Category:Living people]]) for main-namespace articles about people in electoral reform. The policy is still under development on [[Electowiki_talk:Policy]], but these are the generally acceptable categories are emerging:
* Short summary-style pointers to biographies on Wikipedia
* Short summary-style pointers to biographies on other websites frequently referenced by articles on this wiki
* Redirects to user pages on this wiki, for authors who explicity choose to associate their user account with a real-world identity

Please do not associate user accounts on Electowiki with legal identities without explicit permission from the user.
