#2 GWW Technical Committee
This is another one posted by Erasculio that I took directly from the GWW discussion page.
A group of users read all suggestions and pick the X most popular ones, according to talk page entries/similar suggestions. Those would be presented to Isaiah.
Advantages
* No voting. It would not require any new extension nor any new kind of formatting, plus it would avoid some of the exploits voters could use.
* No committee to judge which suggestion is good and which isn't, leading to less conflicts as no one would be offended about how his/her suggestion would not have been considered a "top 50" one.
* Could be a quick system, if the committee agrees about what they consider popularity to be.
Problems
* A system that either could be abused (by adding tons of entries into the talkpage of a skill, or making many copies of the same suggestion with just minor changes) or would require considerable discretion by the committee, leading to more claims of it being biased.
* No quality control. Bad ideas could reach Isaiah, as there is no filter.
* The community does not decide directly as they would through voting; it's a more indirect approach.
