[Wikipedia-l] Article count reform

Tue Mar 11 22:37:00 UTC 2003

Hi,

as per Jimbo's suggestion, I have started a voting page for the various  
ways to reform the article count. Please see

http://meta.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_count_reform

for the details. In short,

March 13th, 20:00 GMT is the deadline for proposals/discussion and the  
beginning of the voting phase

March 17th, 20:00 GMT is the end of the voting phase.

The voting system used is average voting, meaning you can assign a "grade"  
from 1 to 6 (1 being "very good") to each option; the average is  
calculated for each, and the option with the lowest average wins.

I have seeded the page with proposals which I remember from past  
discussions, please add your own where appropriate. My current favorite:  
20 bytes + stub flagging.

Regards,

Erik
