voting model

The voting model consists of two-dimensions. These votes count as effort and accrue '''credit''' to the User with each vote.

There is traditional voting and there is linking. A. : : The user can provide input (or force) into the system by two extremums: # Minimally: a thumbs up or down; +/-1 which sets the "sensitive initial condition" on the trajectory. # Maximally: "Put to top" or "put to bottom". ::This affects the next level in the hierarchy for the respective direction (or '''valence''').<br>

1. These votes can be applied to individual '''Users''' and to '''[[Grouping model |Groups]]'''. This is called ''''''.

2. In addition, each revision can be voted up or down; otherwise called '''[[per-item voting]]'''.

Together, this comprises the '''voting model''' and create an [[structure |emergent dynamic]] to create a [[new form of governance]].
