All Citizendium officials and councils derive their authority from this document, which specifies the powers granted to each. The Charter also provides general guidance on matters such as the conduct of appeals as well as the frequency and nature of Citizendium elections. Citizendium's basic governance structure is defined in <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_24" title="CZ:Charter">Article 24</a> of the charter: </p> <blockquote> <p>The Citizendium shall be devoted to transparent and fair governance with a minimum of bureaucracy. It shall have one governing council: the Citizendium Council, and two ancillary positions: Managing Editor, Constabulary. </p> </blockquote> <p>Following is a brief description of Citizendium's instruments of governance. </p> <div id="toc" class="toc" role="navigation" aria-labelledby="mw-toc-heading"><input type="checkbox" role="button" id="toctogglecheckbox" class="toctogglecheckbox" style="display:none" /><div class="toctitle" lang="en" dir="ltr"><h2 id="mw-toc-heading">Contents</h2><span class="toctogglespan"><label class="toctogglelabel" for="toctogglecheckbox"></label></span></div> <ul> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-1"><a href="#The_Citizendium_Council"><span class="tocnumber">1</span> <span class="toctext">The Citizendium Council</span></a> <ul> <li class="toclevel-2 tocsection-2"><a href="#Constables"><span class="tocnumber">1.1</span> <span class="toctext">Constables</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-2 tocsection-3"><a href="#Technical_Staff"><span class="tocnumber">1.2</span> <span class="toctext">Technical Staff</span></a></li> </ul> </li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-4"><a href="#The_Managing_Editor"><span class="tocnumber">2</span> <span class="toctext">The Managing Editor</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-5"><a href="#Elections"><span class="tocnumber">3</span> <span class="toctext">Elections</span></a></li> <li class="toclevel-1 tocsection-6"><a href="#Previous_governance"><span class="tocnumber">4</span> <span class="toctext">Previous governance</span></a></li> </ul> </div> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="The_Citizendium_Council">The Citizendium Council</span></h2> <p>The <a href="/wiki/CZ:Council" title="CZ:Council">Citizendium Council</a> is responsible for the content, technical, legal, financial and behavioral aspects of Citizendium. The Charter provides specific details of these responsibilities and outlines how the Citizendium Council should manage them. The Citizendium Council issues rules in its areas of responsibility through passed motions. </p><p>The Citizendium Council authorizes subsidiary teams to implement its policies and ensure the wiki and other Citizendium computing assets operate properly. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Constables">Constables</span></h3> <p>Constables (corporately identified as members of the <a href="/wiki/index.php?title=CZ:Constabulary&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="CZ:Constabulary (page does not exist)">Constabulary</a>) maintain order in all online interactions between citizens occuring on Citizendium assets. They also manage the registration process and perform duties requiring <a href="/wiki/CZ:Administrator" title="CZ:Administrator">sysop</a> and <a href="/wiki/CZ:Bureaucrat" title="CZ:Bureaucrat">bureaucrat</a> permissions on the wiki. The Constables are somewhat unusual in that they are specifically established by the Charter and some of their duties are set forth in <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_27" title="CZ:Charter">Article 27</a>, <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_33" title="CZ:Charter">Article 33</a>, <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_34" title="CZ:Charter">Article 34</a>, and <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_38" title="CZ:Charter">Article 38</a>. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Technical_Staff">Technical Staff</span></h3> <p><a href="/wiki/CZ:Technical_Team" title="CZ:Technical Team">Technical staff</a> are responsible for ensuring all Citizendium computing assets operate properly. They perform routine system administration functions, fix software bugs, sometimes engage in software development on Citizendium's computing applications, and maintain Citizendium's servers. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="The_Managing_Editor">The Managing Editor</span></h2> <p>The <a href="/wiki/CZ:Managing_Editor" title="CZ:Managing Editor">Managing Editor</a> has duties and responsibilities specified in <a href="/wiki/CZ:Charter#Article_36" title="CZ:Charter">Article 36</a> of the charter. Specifically, the Managing Editor has the following duties: </p> <blockquote> <ol><li>to ensure by means of executive decisions that the principles and policies of the Citizendium are effectively and coherently observed; such decisions shall be based on established policy where defined;</li> <li>to make interim decisions on behalf of the Citizendium Council when established policy does not provide guidance; these decisions shall be overridden by the establishment of relevant policy;</li> <li>to represent the Citizendium in its relations with external bodies, such as the mass media, and academic or non-academic institutions;</li> <li>to offer guidance on existing policy and its interpretation to help resolve disputes; to advise the Council; and settle disputes including imposing interim solutions pending relevant policy decisions. Throughout, the Managing Editor's guidance is expected to be in accord with the established principles and policies of Citizendium, and particularly with the Charter. The Managing Editor is available to mediate any dispute. The Managing Editor mediates a dispute when requested by all involved parties or when requested by the Chief Constable. Agreements worked out through mediation shall be binding but may be appealed.</li></ol></blockquote> <p>Candidates for Managing Editor must be Editors. The post is directly elected by the community. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Elections">Elections</span></h2> <p>Regularly scheduled elections are held once a year. Roughly half of the Citizendium Council seats are vacated on July 1 of every year. An election in June selects Citizens to fill these seats. All open seats are filled in regularly scheduled elections. In addition, if one or more Council seats becomes vacant within (roughly) 90 days after a regularly scheduled election, a special election is executed to fill those seats. </p><p>The results of past Citizendium elections are noted on the <a href="/wiki/CZ:Elections" title="CZ:Elections">Elections page</a>. </p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Previous_governance">Previous governance</span></h2> <p>Citizendium was initially run by the Editor-in-Chief, <a href="/wiki/User:Larry_Sanger" title="User:Larry Sanger">Larry Sanger</a>, with the help of volunteers. The first formal governance structure was an, which ultimately gave way to a two-Council governance structure once the Charter was established. Governance then comprised the <a href="/wiki/CZ:Management_Council" title="CZ:Management Council">Management</a> and <a href="/wiki/CZ:Editorial_Council" title="CZ:Editorial Council">Editorial</a> Councils, one for administrative matters and the other to oversee content. The first version of the Charter also separately set up the roles of Managing Editor and <a href="/wiki/Archive:Ombudsman" title="Archive:Ombudsman">Ombudsman</a>, the latter to decide disputes over articles. The Councils were merged into a single governing body, with the Managing Editor a non-voting member, in 2013. In 2014, the office of Ombudsman was abolished and its duties merged into the role of Managing Editor. </p><p><br /> </p> <table width="80%" align="center" border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="border-bottom:1px solid #999999; border-top:1px solid #dddddd; border-left:1px solid #aaaaaa; border-right:1px solid #dddddd; margin:0 auto; clear: both;" class="collapsible {{{hide}}}"> <tbody><tr> <th align="center" colspan="3" style="background:#ffff99"><i>Citizendium</i> <a href="/wiki/CZ:Organization" title="CZ:Organization">Organization</a> </th></tr> <tr> <td style="background:#f5f5f5" align="center" colspan="3"><a href="/wiki/CZ:Home" title="CZ:Home">CZ:Home</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Workgroups" title="CZ:Workgroups">Workgroups</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Personnel" title="CZ:Personnel">Personnel</a> | <a class="mw-selflink selflink">Governance</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Proposals" title="CZ:Proposals">Proposals</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Recruitment" title="CZ:Recruitment">Recruitment</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Contact" title="CZ:Contact">Contact</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Donate" title="CZ:Donate">Donate</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:FAQ" title="CZ:FAQ">FAQ</a> | <a href="/wiki/CZ:Sitemap" title="CZ:Sitemap">Sitemap</a> </td></tr></tbody></table> <p>|width=10% align=center style="background:#F5F5F5"|  |} </p>  </div> <div class="printfooter" data-nosnippet="">Retrieved from "<a dir="ltr" href="https://citizendium.org/wiki/index.php?title=CZ:Governance&oldid=811413">https://citizendium.org/wiki/index.php?title=CZ:Governance&oldid=811413</a>"</div></div> <div id="catlinks" class="catlinks" data-mw="interface"><div id="mw-normal-catlinks" class="mw-normal-catlinks"><a href="/wiki/Special:Categories" title="Special:Categories">Categories</a>: <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Category:CZ_Editorial_Council_Members" title="Category:CZ Editorial Council Members">CZ Editorial Council Members</a></li><li><a href="/wiki/Category:Organization" title="Category:Organization">Organization</a></li></ul></div></div> </div> </div> <div id="mw-navigation"> <h2>Navigation menu</h2> <div id="mw-head"> <nav id="p-personal" class="vector-menu mw-portlet mw-portlet-personal vector-user-menu-legacy" aria-labelledby="p-personal-label" role="navigation" > <h3 id="p-personal-label" class="vector-menu-heading " > <span class="vector-menu-heading-label">Personal tools</span> </h3> <div class="vector-menu-content"> <ul class="vector-menu-content-list"><li id="pt-login" class="mw-list-item"><a href="/wiki/index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&returnto=CZ%3AGovernance&returntoquery=oldid%3D811413" title="To edit pages, [[Special:RequestAccount|get a contributor account]].
