The consensus issue seems to me to be critical to the whole Wiki concept. If the Wiki community approach is correct, who is going to "police" what consensus is and when it is reached? It seems to me that this goes back to having to have a governing board to make basic policy decisions. [[User:Jbparker|Jbparker]] 22:56, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

:I've thought more about this matter of a governing body, and it has raised some questions which will, no doubt, expose my ignorance. But I'm going to ask them anyway. As the Wiki expands, how many "Sysops" will there be? Who has the ultimate decision-making power for the Wiki right now? How is the responsibility for policies/guidelines/user guide/content/etc. divided up now? It would seem to me that if a "governing body" is needed to answer some of Alan's questions above, the Sysops and Moderators should be involved, in some mix. Is there a page entitled "Wiki Administration" or something of that kind, which identifies the Sysops and other Research Wiki administrators? I know there is a page listing Moderators.[[User:Jbparker|Jbparker]] 16:55, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
