Nomic 2/Proposals/What The Heck Is A Proposal Anyway

Proposal

New Rule:

• This rule describes a 'proposal'.
  1. A proposal is the content entered under a "Proposal" heading on a subpage of http://inky.org/wiki/index.php?title=Nomic_2/Proposals
  2. A proposal has some text called the name. The name of a proposal is usually the name of the subpage of the proposal.
     • If a proposal enacts a rule, the name of that rule is by default the name of the proposal.
  3. The text content of a proposal must be entirely on the aforementioned subpage; other content such as images may be linked to from the text content.
  4. All proposal content must be made generally available to the players for discussion and voting (or other mechanisms as appropriate) for a fair and reasonable amount of time to be considered a proposal.
  5. A proposal is considered to be the first version of the proposal which receives a vote (or other such mechanism of support or opposition intended to result in the proposal being discarded or being ratified into a rule) other than the proposer's, no matter what edits might be made to the page hosting the proposal in the future.
  6. Proposals may only be submitted by players.

Voting

(to avoid proposal bloat, I respectfully suggest we hash this out to a point we agree on either onMUD or in Discussion before we open it to a vote)
