Reform Bill

[Lapeirousia]

Ok.

& the council now exists as a government body so I guess we have to come up with a new name for our political party to avoid confusion between the two.  Delfos may be we could call it the Participist party, or the Council party?  Participist Council of Taijitu?  Let me know.

Lapeirousia, thank you for helping on the wiki. It's good that you've been updating some of the information, and I really appreciate it. I for one have not been able to find the time to wikify the Council & TNA, update the offices and partisanship statistics across the wiki, or create an Ex-laws category, which is a good idea. Great stuff. It'd be cool also to include the repealed laws findable here. While I'm mentioning laws, the Laws of Taijitu page also could use revision

All that being said, please, next time we change the constitution, don't edit the Constitution meta-page to no longer include the official constitution template. It's editable so that people can put information about the constitution into that page, not to change which constitution is included. By putting the official constitution into Document:Constitution of Taijitu we're able to see how it's changed quite easily. If we were to start intermixing things, and changing sometimes one page sometimes another, our history could become difficult to understand. Also, the Reform Bill quite explicitly did not repeal the Holidays act. <_<

Ok I wrote a reply but I've deleted it because I can make a much shorter response:

Thank you for your kind words.

With all due respect, the constitution page is editable, the constitution document is not.  It is not editable.

You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reason:
This page has been protected to prevent editing or other actions.

The only alternative I had to what I did would have been to create a new page for the new constitution.  Which would have been even more silly.  Perhaps another possibility would be we could unprotect the document?

I may not have time for a while but will try and get back to this soon.

The Constitution document is protected to protect its revision history. That the Constitution page was out of date for a few hours is not so dire as to require reorganizing everything.

I'm just asking you to recognize that if something is blocked from being edited, you shouldn't seek ways of editing it anyway, you should get someone who can edit it to edit it.

On the subject, I'll start a discussion of wiki sysops over in Technical Stuff. It'd be good to make sure we have enough.

If that's the case, the how available are you going to be if I ask for your help?

Is it going to put unnecessary strain on you if I pester you about such things?
