Suppose it were agreed that articles in Democracy Chronnicles wouldn't criticize any specific methods? Or mention any methods other than the one advocated by the article?
For instance, I could remove from my article any specific mention of Condorcet, Kemeny or VoteFair (But I don't think I mentioned VoteFair). I could replace those references with "methods more complicated than Approval", or "methods that give incentive for favorite-burial". Likewise, you could merely refer to "methods that don't meet Condorcet's Critrerion". In that way, there'd be no criticism of specific methods in the articles, and all criticism and debate would remain at EM, a discussion and debate forum, where it belongs. Mike Ossipoff
