Talk:Beyond Voting
From BeyondVoting
I think it might also be useful to link into other efforts at civic participation and linking the new tools to new governance opportunities. The example that I know is that of the City of Milan and the role that the Milan Community Network plays there. http://www.retecivica.milano.it/eng/pg_visitor.html
- Good suggestion. I've started a section at New Tools for Democracy on this. Tom.
Tom, this page is a 'main page'. It is now intimidatingly long. Most frontpages welcome guests to enter and give some directions to find where what. Dedalus 05:02, 13 Apr 2005 (EDT)
- I strongly agree. I've moved the two largest sections away, leaving a summary here. More could be done with the other sections too. Angela 05:28, 15 Apr 2005 (EDT)
- Thanks for the assist Angela.

[edit] Scope of project - public authorities?
Quite a bit of NYC's governance decisions are made through unelected authorities, such as UDC or MTA. Does this project envision addressing that subject?

[edit] Beyond Voting's second birthday

[edit] Mediawiki:mainpage
Would someone please edit that to say Beyond Voting?????????????/
- It already does say that and has done for years. Are you having some problem with it? Angela talk 19:44, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Widening the scope of this wiki
Has consideration been given in the past to widening the scope of this wiki? In particular I'm thinking of anything to do with beyond voting worldwide, so in other countries, cities, etc? And if so is it time to reconsider? New Tools of democracy contains for example some UK and Milan relevant content. Sustainable Community Action wiki has some pages on what it calls Community involvement (which is seen as an essential part of sustainable development), so maybe potential for collaboration? Also notice that founder Tom doesn't seem to have edited since June(?) Philralph 16:20, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
