| ==Personnel and governance==
| |
| The Citizendium is devoted to transparent and fair governance at a minimum of bureaucracy. Special roles will not be created without excellent reason.
| |
| {|align="right" cellpadding="10" style="background-color:#FFFFCC; width:20%; border: 1px solid #aaa; margin:20px; font-size: 92%;"
| |
| |
| |
| *Governance involves three areas of activity:
| |
| **Content
| |
| **Non-editorial operations
| |
| **Behavior and dispute resolution
| |
| |}
| |
| ===Content===
| |
| *Any Citizen can act as an Author, contribute or modify content, unless blocked from specific articles or topics by an Editor or Constable.
| |
| ::Blocks may be appealed through the Dispute Resolution procedure. Pseudonyms may not be used. Within a month after the entry into force of this charter, all existing pseudonym accounts shall be closed by the Constabulary, and the respective user pages protected. The Citizens concerned may reapply under their real name.
| |
| | |
| *Editors are Citizens who — because of their recognized expertise in specific areas — are responsible for the scope and quality of the content presented by the Citizendium.
| |
| ::Specifically, in their areas of expertise, they are entitled (1) to make decisions about specific questions or disputes concerning particular articles, and (2) to approve high-quality articles. The criteria for granting or revoking Editorship are to be defined by the Editorial Council.
| |
| | |
| *To streamline the [[CZ:Editor Application Review Procedure]], applications for Editorship shall be processed in two steps.
| |
| ::First, an applicant will be registered as an Author, so s/he can immediately start editing. Secondly, the application for Editorship will be reviewed by the [[:Category:CZ Editorial Personnel Administrators|Editorial Personnel Administrators]] (to be appointed by the Editorial Council) who will strive to make a decision within one week.
| |
| ::[[CZ:Editorial Council Resolution 0012]] shall be extended such that these new Editors will be categorized as [[:Category:New CZ Editors|New Editors]] during the first three months after registration or until their first contribution to the project.
| |
| | |
| *An Editorial Council will be responsible for guiding content and establishing policy.
| |
| ::It shall consist of nine active Citizens, with five seats reserved for Editors. The remaining four seats are reserved for Authors that are not Editors. A quorum shall consist of five members. Members of the Editorial Council may not simultaneously serve on the Management Committee or be Constables. They may, however, be Task Managers.
| |
| ::The members of the Editorial Council will be elected by vote of active Citizens, with two-year terms renewable once consecutively. The Editorial Council will appoint one of its members as the Editorial Lead, who will represent the Citizendium externally on matters of content.
| |
| ::During deliberations on a matter covered by specific workgroups, the Chief Editor of that Workgroup, or another member, may be part of a quorum if that individual is not a Council member. If, however, the matter under discussion involves a dispute with such an Editor, that Editor may state positions to the Council but not vote on them unless already a member.
| |
| | |
| *The Editorial Council may create and reorganize workgroups to arrange areas of content, and to encourage collaboration among Authors and Editors in areas of expertise.
| |
| ::Workgroup members will build top-level articles and knowledge structures for the articles in a discipline.
| |
| ::The Editorial Council shall elaborate a strategy and policy on topic-specific collaboration, chiefly based on [[CZ:Workgroups]] and some accepted ontology or other knowledge categorization scheme. In addition to subject specific Workgroups, there shall be a General Workgroup with jurisdiction over general issues of style and content, and for articles of very wide scope. There may be, in addition, interdisciplinary or specialized Subgroups. In addition, there may be Area Groups, as for (e.g., Science or Science & Technology) to deal with broad issues affecting many but not all workgroups (e.g., units of measurement).
| |
| ::When there are disputes on content issues, assuming there are multiple Editors in a workgroup, they will attempt to resolve the dispute. Failing agreement, the matter will be taken to the Ombudsman, and then to the Editorial Council.
| |
| | |
| *The Editorial Council may appoint individuals, not necessarily Editors or members of the Editorial Council, to task-specific roles, such as dealing with the various people and organizations involved in Approving a high-quality article, in reviewing the credentials of Editor applicants, etc.
| |
| | |
| ===Editor-in-Chief===
| |
| *An Editor-in-Chief shall be appointed, with a term of office of four years renewable once, by simple majority of each of the Editorial Council and Management Committee.
| |
| ::The functions of this office shall be:
| |
| :#to ensure day-to-day smooth functioning of the Citizendium;
| |
| :#to facilitate the practical implementation of the Citizendium editorial policy as defined by its governing institutions;
| |
| :#to make interim editorial decisions (in consultation with other editors); and
| |
| :#to carry out any other tasks as required by this Charter or decisions of the governing bodies.
| |
| | |
| ===Non-content operations===
| |
| | |
| *A Management Committee shall be responsible for matters concerned with the non-editorial policies of Citizendium, such as finance, external alliances, communications, administration, and behavior. To this end, it may appoint Administrators and Task Managers whose activities it will oversee. It will also appoint Constables and oversee their activities.
| |
| ::The Management Committee shall consist of seven Citizens, who may not simultaneously serve on the Editorial Council. They may, however, be Constables or Task Managers. A quorum shall consist of four members. The members of the Management Committee shall be elected by vote of active Citizens and Authors, with two-year renewable terms. The Management Committee will appoint one of its members as the Management Lead, who will represent the Citizendium externally on all matters except content.
| |
| ::The Committee, with advice from legal and audit advisers, will designate those members that can enter into contracts or expend funds on behalf of the Citizendium. Substantial expenditures will require more than one signature.
| |
| | |
| *The Citizendium invites collaboration with non-Citizen partners on any matters relevant to the project's mission, provided that such collaboration does not conflict with this Charter.
| |
| ::The Management Council shall elaborate a strategy and policy on collaboration with external partners, paying particular attention to fostering the collaboration with instructors by way of [[CZ:Eduzendium|Eduzendium]], and with external experts or professional organizations for the purposes of providing or reviewing content at the Citizendium.
| |
| | |
| *Like the Editorial Council, the Management Committee may appoint individuals, not necessarily members of that Editorial Committee, to task-specific roles, such software testing and development supervision, preliminary media contacts, etc.
| |
| | |
| *The Management Committee may, within the financial rules, consult with professionals such as attorneys and accountants.
| |
| | |
| *The Citizendium's administration handles the legal, financial and technical operations necessary for the project to fulfill its mission. It may include contractors or employees, under the policy direction of the Management Committee, who eventually may be directed, on a routine basis, by an employee such as an Executive Director.
| |
| | |
| ===Behavior and dispute resolution===
| |
| | |
| *The Constabulary shall be charged with upholding the Citizendium's rules of behavior as determined by community policy, covering all Citizens including those with official positions (such as the Ombudsman or the Editor-in-Chief).
| |
| ::The Constabulary's authority is restricted to matters of behavior and they shall not intervene in matters of content. Constabulary tools include: advice and instruction on wiki or through Citizen email, removal of offensive text, and warning and banning of users according to written guidelines. The enforcement of these rules is to be carried out with reasonable pragmatism and leniency without prejudice as to Citizen status or position and only in those situations where the applicability of existing rules is clear. The Constabulary may develop additional tools and will publish and monitor the appropriate use of said tools. Decisions of constables may be appealed through the appropriate adjudication process as determined by the Management Council.
| |
| | |
| *An Ombudsman shall be appointed, charged with the task of assisting in dispute resolution, as laid down in this Charter.
| |
| ::The role of Ombudsman shall be vested in a Citizen with substantial Citizendium experience and widely respected judgement, who may appoint up to two other Citizens (Assistant Ombudsmen) to support his/her work; their appointment and termination of duties is at the personal discretion of the Ombudsman. The Ombudsman will be elected by simple majority vote of each of the Editorial Council and Management Council, for a term of 4 years. An Ombudsman may be recalled by a supermajority (75%) of each of the Editorial and Management Councils.
| |
| | |
| *Disputes will be settled at the lowest possible level, such as by bringing in peer Editors or Constables. Next, the Ombudsman will be contacted for non-binding mediation.
| |
| ::Should that fail, the matter will go to the appropriate body — the Editorial Board/Council for content matters and the Management Council for behavioral and administrative matters. As a last resort, both Councils may appoint members to an arbitration panel, for final arbitration as defined below.
| |
| | |
| ::In the event of a dispute that cannot be resolved at a level below that of the Editorial Council or the Management Committee, appeals boards may be constituted on an ad hoc basis. They will consist of three members nominated by the Editorial Council and three members nominated by the Management Committee, who shall not have been involved in the specific dispute. An Ombudsman will preside; that official shall direct the Board and will be non-voting other than to possess a tie-breaking vote. Should no Ombudsman be available who is not a party to the matter, the Councils shall appoint a special presider from the Citizenry.
| |
| | |
| ===Electorate===
| |
| *All Authors are entitled to vote on the adoption or modification of this charter.
