Article 32
The Editorial Council is responsible for content and style policies. In particular, it shall
1. make all decisions regarding the content of the Citizendium; 3. coordinate and supervise the Editors and their activities; 4. encourage and supervise development and organization of the Citizendium's content; 5. adjudicate disputes over content among Authors, Editors, and/or Managing Editor, and impose its decisions upon the content of the Citizendium; 6. publicly set its own rules and by-laws for its meetings; and 7. be composed of a number of members corresponding to the quorum who shall be Editors while the rest of the members shall be Citizens who are not Editors.
Knowledge classification
In the immediate term, review the Workgroup structure and recommend consolidations, deletions, splits, and new workgroups.
In the moderate term, consider the Workgroup system as a whole. Is it at the right granularity? Should it be used both for #expertise management and #quality marking?
In the long term, evaluate better linkage among content, including but not limited to semantic Web techniques. Look at the issue of external workflow integration.
Expertise management
Charter Article 32, Point 2 states "establish the qualifications for Editors and establish the procedure for promoting Citizens to Editor status, provided that such qualifications and such procedures do not violate any article of this charter. This task force will review the procedures and qualifications for Editors, in coordination with the #Knowledge classification task force to develop descriptions of expertise.
It will address whether there might be value in having levels of subject matter experts, style and copy editors, etc. Especially if there is decoupling of the Approval process from Editor status, it will consider whether Editors should first have Author experience, or receive a specific waiver.
It will draft policies for the use of outside reviewers.
