Clone (voting)
Everything mentioned here is already (or should be) mentioned in strategic nomination. Being a page with a disambiguating title, it shouldn't be turned into a redirect but outright deleted. Dissident (Talk) 23:25, 22 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Keep - your removal of the links from Bloc voting and Single Transferable Vote made it harder to see why this is actually useful in context. Proposing a clone may be one possibility as a strategic nomination, but the concept of clones goes wider than that. --Henrygb 23:47, 22 December 2005 (UTC)
 * Can you expand on that? I see no reason why anything mentioned in clone (voting) wouldn't end up being duplicated from strategic nomination. Even worse, the exact definition of a clone is a very delicate technical issue, with me even just now having tightened it up in strategic nomination. What's the use of having an article that's effectively equal to an earlier version of another? -- Dissident (Talk) 00:24, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

 * Neutral - As it stands now, the clone article does look like it should go in Strategic Nomination, however if there is a use for clones not relevant to strategic nomination and not currently mentioned in the clone article, then that should be mentioned in the clone article. Would anyone care to nurture the clone article? Scott Ritchie 11:21, 23 December 2005 (UTC)
