Binding mediated consensus decisionmaking on Wikipedia
Fragment of a discussion from Talk:Task force/Community Health
That is very interesting! I'm impressed that it seems to have worked! (Has it?) "Binding mediation" could be a model worth supporting, or expanding on with further options that can assist in disputes in controversial topic areas.
If these disputes are settled, people would spend less time infighting, and more time getting actual work done. This could really reduce burnout and improve community health.
