. . . numerous democratic elements . . . incompatible with leadership of a dictator, constitutional monarch, or such -
Surely the writer meant to say absolute monarch, not constitutional monarch? Democracy and constitutional monarchy have gone well together, in Europe at least, for the last couple of centuries, as the latter article makes clear. Textorus (talk) 04:58, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Textorus: I was comparing collaborative/participative decision making model with Jimbo's "constitutional monarchy" he wrote about. I did not make any comparisons to actual forms of organization of state. Pundit|utter 13:15, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- correction request could I kindly ask to switch the title of the book in the headline and throughout the article to "Common knowledge? An Ethnography of Wikipedia"? This is the original, the Polish edition is just a translation, although it went out earlier. Piotrus agreed but suggested requesting this through a comment. The Signpost audience in general won't read the Polish edition anyway Pundit|utter 12:49, 4 January 2014 (UTC) :) http://www.sup.org/book.cgi?id=24010[reply]
- I did think it was strange to use the Polish title. I'll try to change it. Tony (talk) 13:43, 4 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
