Modified article. I have cleaned it up, rendered a more neutral point of view, and ameliorated the copyright infringement problems. Please re-vote. This is still arguably hardly a noteworthy topic though, given the vague and unfinished nature of the proposal, and its lack of adherents. Abstain. Uncle G 16:13, 2005 Jan 7 (UTC)
Interesting concept. Can't say I've heard of it, and it gets 14 google hits, most unrelated. Doesn't seem notable, but please keep contributing. A respectful delete. Meelar (talk) 18:10, Jan 7, 2005 (UTC)

As I was doing the cleanup, I was quite tempted to add a section with all of the questions that immediately came to mind about items that were glossed over or simply wholly absent from the proposal. I didn't, of course, because that would be secondary source material. The article as it stands now isn't original research, however. It's not the proposal, nor is it an analysis of the proposal. It is a description of the proposal, as published elsewhere. What the article as it stands now is, and what you should be judging it on is, is unimportant. It only has potential interest to a handful of people. (Were the proposal actually put forward as a constitutional amendment, or even widely discussed in the political arena, this would be different.) Uncle G 23:06, 2005 Jan 7 (UTC)

Delete, original research, or if it isn't, no important politician, group, journalist, political theorist, etc has actually proposed this. --BM 12:24, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)
