Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring ↗ regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring ↗.  Thank you.. You've failed to provide anything resembling a convincing rationale why you're relying on an unpublished source that is in its text "biased against" the topic of STAR Voting.

Greetings. When you nominate an article for deletion, it is assumed that your opinion is to Delete. Repeating the word "Delete" in your nomination is useless, pedantic, and confusing the tally. Take care. -The Gnome (talk) 21:45, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

Managing a conflict of interest

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, MarkusSchulze. We welcome ↗ your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about ↗ in the page Schulze method ↗, you may have a conflict of interest ↗ (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the '''COI guideline ↗''' and FAQ for organizations ↗ for more information. We ask that you:

'''avoid editing or creating''' articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;

'''propose changes''' on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{tl|request edit}} template);

'''disclose''' your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE ↗);

'''avoid linking''' to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam ↗);

'''do your best''' to comply with Wikipedia's content policies ↗.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID ↗).

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.{{#ifexpr: ({{CURRENTTIMESTAMP}} - 20190902083626) < 5000000000 | {{PAGENAME}} ↗ | }} NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 08:36, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

Cite for minlemax?

Hi, Markus! Re your revert of my edit at Schulze method: Difference between revisions - Wikipedia ↗, the cited article doesn't use the unusual term ''minlemax''. Do you have a cite that supports the language you prefer in the article? Thanks. ★NealMcB★ (talk) 13:35, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

:The term "minlexmax" has been inserted by SEppley, not by me. See this diff ↗. If you know a better term for "lexicographic minimum", then feel free to insert it. I reverted your edit because "lexicographic minimum" is not the same as "minimum". Markus Schulze 17:59, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

References for the table on Schulze method

Dear Markus Schulze,

I am currently working on voting methods, I'm interested in comparing these methods on their characteristics, and the comparison table you introduced corresponds to what I'm looking for. However, there are not references attached to it. Could you please tell me how you built it and where you found the information please?

BR. Cedric Buron (talk) 08:35, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

:Dear Cedric Buron, the table is my own collection. It contains own thoughts and information from other publications. Do you have questions about special entries of this table? Markus Schulze 08:12, 20 July 2022 (UTC)
::Dear Markus,
::I just wanted to know if the table had been published in an journal or a conference, so that I can make a citation but I just saw that it is in your article: Schulze, M. "A new monotonic, clone-independent, reversal symmetric, and condorcet-consistent single-winner election method." ''Soc Choice Welf'' 36, 267–303 (2011).

The New Wiki Way

Whoah, the creator of my favorite Condorcet method ↗ is right here on Wikipedia!

You might be interested in the staged process we discovered ↗ during a CrowdStrike-related move discussion ↗. The new process shares some things in common with STAR voting ↗, but it's much more deliberative ↗. The process we discovered – that ''Wikipedia'' discovered – might ↗ be able to save democracy ↗ in America and around the globe.

The new process works especially well under the eye of a keen shepherd ↗, but can be used by any group trying to select from among ''many candidates'' across ''multiple criteria''.

I would love to hear your thoughts and I would love for you to contribute a chapter to my upcoming book on the method ↗.
