[edit] +merge options

This page is not only about Corporate Transparency.

  1. complete personal and corporate transparency
  2. the health, safety, and wellbeing of individuals, neighborhoods, communitys, institutions, governments and social support systems that subscribe,
  3. the protection of the natural environment, and
  4. the dynamic development of the social assumptions, laws, and conviviance that construct the radical transparency paradigm.

suggest:

  1. make Corporate page a redirect to radikal transparency.
  2. put the Corporate article in radikal transparency.

I agree with Mion that this page should not be merged.

We at EcoReality have inter-linked this page in multiple places on our site. We are a BC Cooperative Association, not a Corporation. Many other non-corporate bodies embrace radical transparency, including non-profits, ad-hoc unincorporated organizations, government bodies, religious/spiritual organizations, educational institutions, individuals, etc.

In fact, radical transparency has little to do with US corporations that must, by law, be run to maximize profit -- even to the detriment of transparency! To that extent, "Corporate Transparancy" is more a wish than reality.

Also, the existing Corporate Transparency page name does not conform with established standards, and the canonical name (corporate transparency) is 404. If anything, if there is a merge, both Corporate Transparency and corporate transparency should redirect here. --Bytesmiths 01:10, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

the Corporate Transparency is not a 404, but I see your point, that Radical Transparancy in itself is not automaticly a Corporate Transparency, like in your case. Mion 01:42, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

the option could be a == See Also== section on both articles. Mion 01:44, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

changed the merge option to See Also. Mion 01:50, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Radical_Transparency is a potential component of universal ethics

In a more and more complex world, the critical processes that make up the safety and wellbeing of our planet, need the maximal awareness of all minds. Governments only represent a tiny fraction of the "Global Brain". Therefore I opt for "Don't subordinate it under OpenGovernment". Of course, if every mind is continuously participating in OpenGovernment in the widest sense, then "Merge" is an option for me.
