mattersreferendum#The first case: filing a case in the headlines (joint signature stage)

Case 1: Do you agree with the selection of Matters headlines because they are based on neutrality and should not be mixed with political or partisan leanings?

Legal basis: 1 Matters is a content community based on distributed technology, based on the community and driven by discussion; (Community Charter)

2 Matters also implements community self-governance. When users believe that there is a behavior that violates the consensus of the community, they can initiate a lawsuit. When the lawsuit post is supported by more than 5 people, the community trial will be initiated. (Community Charter)

Explanation: If the referendum is successful, it can also be considered as a community consensus, and if it is contrary to the referendum result, it is an act that violates the community consensus. Therefore, the referendum should be regarded as a part of community self-government litigation.

justification

This proposal "Do you agree with the selection of Matters' headline articles is based on neutrality and should not be mixed with political or partisan tendencies?" The legislative principle of the Matters Community Charter is created, the purpose is to implement the oral commitment of the station on the station, and it has officially become Written part of the community charter

The site's verbal commitment

Although it is not mentioned in the community charter and user agreement, the site has verbally expressed its intention to build Matters into a decentralized community many times on the site. At present, for various reasons including technology, matter is still not a truly decentralized community. "matters today" and "don't miss" are products of traditional central communities. The referendum sponsors recognize and understand the reason why matter cannot become a truly decentralized community now, but also believe that it is to develop a decentralized community as much as possible within the current allowable range. Although community headlines cannot be removed, if the selection of headline content can be neutral and not based on factional opinions or political stances, it will be a big step towards a decentralized community. In this way, although there are headline content with the traditional central community, the two are fundamentally different, just like the difference between clouds and mud.

This case complies with the intent of the Community Charter

Matters is a content community based on distributed technology, based on the community and driven by discussion; it is committed to encouraging users to create valuable content through technological innovation and the reconstruction of value rules, so that good content can be seen, and creators can continue to economic returns to advance knowledge production in the public domain. For the sustainable and healthy functioning of the community, Matters encourages and protects all behaviors that create a rational, friendly, and genuine community atmosphere.

The implementation of this case will be beneficial to "the creation of valuable content to make good content visible, to provide creators with continuous economic returns, and to promote the production of knowledge in the public domain." The choice of Toutiao is not based on the principle of neutrality, which will inevitably crack down on users' creation desire. The choice of headlines is mixed with partisan opinions, which will inevitably reduce the chance of good content being headlined. The choice of headlines is influenced by political stance, which inevitably damages the production of public knowledge. Instead of being neutral, there is no possibility that there are parties between parties and those who are influenced by political positions "encourage and protect all behaviors that shape a rational, friendly, and sincere community atmosphere." Only neutral sites can gain user trust and implement the content mentioned in the community charter.

This case will enhance the trust of the site

matters The user's trust in the site is entirely based on the impression of the site's actions rather than any binding provisions. If this case is passed and written into the community charter, it will give users a legal basis for their trust. On January 10, 2009, the website posted a controversial political article on the headlines, causing dissatisfaction and protests from users on the website. Afterwards, the website insisted that the article was a "high-quality statistical article" and no longer responded to the questions raised by the user community. This has seriously dampened the user's trust in the website and caused the website to fall into an unprecedented crisis of trust. This case will help solve the problem of users' trust in the website, and can also revive users' expectations for the website

Implement the idea

Set up a Control Yuan on Matters to monitor whether the selection of Matters' headline content is neutral.

The composition of the staff of the Overwatch Council

One station representative, one user designated by the station, one referendum initiator, one user designated by the referendum initiator, and two users selected by consensus between the station and the referendum initiator

A total of six people, called supervisory committees

How the Supervisory Yuan executes

If any supervisory committee has doubts about whether the content of the headline is neutral or not, a supervisory meeting may be convened. Within 24 hours, if the number of attendees is more than 2/3 and the approval is greater than the disapproval, it will be ruled that the selection of headlines is not in compliance with the rules. The website should take down the headline and issue an apology announcement to the user.

Operation of the Overwatch Council

The operating rules of the Supervisory Yuan shall be decided by the Supervisory Committee on their own.

Self-imposed threshold for referendum

There are about 20-30 daily active users on the site

Joint signature

Therefore, it is more reasonable to set the number of co-signers in the co-signing stage to 20.

The qualifications of joint signers are compared to the qualifications of users in community litigation

After the joint signature is passed, the website should assist in the initiation of the referendum, and put the official referendum into the first article of "Don't Miss".

referendum

Therefore, it is more reasonable to set the referendum attendance at 30.

Referendum time is 72 hours

Agreeing superfluous disagreement is deemed to have passed

disobey the referendum

If the website has a completely negative attitude towards the referendum, the sponsor of this referendum will continue to promote this referendum on the principle of user disobedience, and call it a "disobedience referendum" to express users' opinions to the website.

The referendum sponsors sincerely invite all users who care about the community and the operators of the site to join
